Hi tswone, Actually that can also be achieved by means of other math expressions that right now Im looking into them... Sine, Cosine, etc, using bezier for just that would be like killing a mosquito with a barrelgun ;-) the calculations are quite intensive, where as to calc a sin/cos is almost native to the Math native object.
Since I already delved into this (thanks to you!) Im planing/starting a second plugin, with much of the same functionality, but using other formulae... Current plans are to just leave this as pristine and simple as possible, then tackle quadratic beziers (much the same, but 2 end points and just one control point, as opposed to these beziers that have 2 end points, and 2 control points) And then move on to other stuff. The main goal is to have as wide and general as possible and not delve into specificities, so you guys can do pretty much what you like with these!!! I''ll keep you posted on the progress!
