hello,

what about converting cartesian to polar coordinates instead?

with something like

angle = atan(y/x)

you can even get the distance from the center with

R = Sqrt(x2 + y2)

that should be a lot easier

Objet: [PD] Circular scrolling in pd

Hi,

I'm trying to implement circular scrolling with the trackpad in pd
and
am approaching it by dividing a circle into segments and trying to
detect when the mouses moves from one segment to the other. At the
moment I can only detect 4 segments (basically just the zero
crossings)
which is not really accurate enough.

How would I go about detecting the boundaries of the 12 segments in
the
attached patch (circscroll.pd)?

Eventually I want to detect speed and direction too - but perhaps
there
is a better approach?

any advice welcome.

thanks,

james
