 But I am off to something else right now--using Run Rev to create a
 simulation contrasting global warming on Venus, Earth and Mars.
 (Right now I need a tool for making circular arcs--like the Run Rev
 pie shaped circular segments, but without the radial lines. May be a
 job for Turtle Graphics.)
    Graphics can be filled or not-filled, and you can also adjust the
thickness/color/etc of the line. THus, why not try a *non-filled* arc?
    Hope this helps...


Quentin,

Are you referring to the Run Rev arc using the circle graphic with given arc length?

The problem I have with this is that I need an arc without radial lines. But fortunately it is easy to build one in Run Rev.

Put the following into a button script:

on mouseUp
  arc  the loc of me,100,0,180+90,"myArc"
end mouseUp

on arc startPt, r, tStartAngle,tEndAngle,tName
  put item 1 of startPt into x0
  put item 2 of startPt into y0
  repeat with a = tStartAngle to tEndAngle
    put x0 + r*cos(a/180*pi) into x
    put y0 + r* sin(a/180*pi) into y
    put round(x),round(y) & cr after results
  end repeat
  set the points of graphic tName to results
end arc

And you will get a three-quarters circle, with radius 100, drawn around the button. (You will need a line graphic with the name "myArc." )

Following up on the "Poll the sum(7,9)" thread, I'm one of those who can't add, so I always let Run Rev do it for me, hence the 180 +90.

Jim
