thanks Jason, Deepak for the propmt answer on this.
I'll take a look at point.polar. Deepak, my previous menu was the same model
you sent, like a carousel menu, but this one has to stand still (that's ok)
and not overlap (this is not ok). I believe that detecting the overlap and
not allow the overlap when scaled is the tricky part, as we can have
different sizes for the images that will be loaded in the cicle area.
Perhaps, limiting the image size helps a little.
I believe that it would be like the osX dock menu but circular:

I'll keep trying!
thanks!

Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] circle menu
my problems:
- math envolved to put the loaded images in the "circle" path
- math to re-arrange the items as new items are added to xml
- they need some detection to prevent the images from overlapping when
loaded or when scaling
Point.polar() will easily take care of the first two bullets. Not sure
about the third one, pretty easy on a grid, but that could be tricky
given a circular layout.
