Re: [Flashcoders] Drawing a continuous curved line through n points in AS1 or AS2 (Catmull-Rom splines?)

2008-11-16 Thread matt stuehler
Everyone,

Many thanks for these excellent examples and suggestions. Ivan's
example in particular is really slick.

One more example I found that's also really terrific: Andreas Weber's
MotionDraw class
(http://www.motiondraw.com/md/as_samples/t/CatmullRomSpline/tween.html)

I wish I wasn't so math illiterate - I could be a better judge of the
quality of each of these solutions. It does look like there are MANY
solutions to drawing a curved line through a series of points, but in
my naive opinion, Andreas' class produces aesthetically beautiful
curves - rounded, but not too much, and very efficient.

Anyway, thanks again to all.

Cheers,
Matt Stuehler
