I started working on something similar, and converted some AS2 Code I found to AS3.
It's not finished, or well commented - but should give you a good starting point: http://kurst.co.uk/transfer/GGear.rar . I was thinking of making this open source once I got further down the road, but want to contact the original AS2 authors. If you could send me source of any improvements you make it would be great. - karim Credits: /* * Flash Graph Visualization Toolkit * Goal: To provide a simple interactive toolkit for visualizing graph structure and end countless * fruitless goolge:"actionscript graph -chart" queries. * * Acknowledgements: * This toolkit owes a debt of gratitude to many people.

This is pretty close, but not quite. * [http://www.marumushi.com/apps/flickrgraph/] * * And of course to the Macromedia/Adobe team that brings us flash.

Rip out the render, attractForce, repelForce and do your own thing. */ -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ali Drongo Sent: 03 October 2008 14:55 To: Flash Coders List Subject: [Flashcoders] Advice on creating nodes on elastic Hiya, I want to create something very similar to visualthesaurus.com, dyamically generating nodes with labels that are linked by elastic. I'm thinking of using the APE from cove.org If anyone can point me in the way of any tutorials/alternative approaches or existing source that would be amazing!
