Cool!
Now can you do the same trick with an irregular polygon :)

Hi TJ,
if you need to deal more with geometric functions you might want to
take a look at ArcadeEngine. It is packed with lots of functions one
can use in Multimedia apps.
The syntax to calculate the point you are searching with ArcadeEngine
in use would be:

Now can you do
Hi everyone,
1) If I have the points A and B, how would I determine point C that lies
along the slope but is X units in length from the origin (which will always
be point A)
I can find the total distance between A and B or the midpoint using the
distance and midpoint formulas, but I'm not

James,
Thanks for your help. The code did not work for me as is. Namely point C
was reflected negatively, so I fixed that by using -X, then I had to
subtract Cx and Cy from A's location in order to offset C correctly. But
after that it worked perfectly! Thanks again for your quick response.
