ActionScript 3.0 :: Equation For The Perfect Curve Using "graphics.curveTo"?
Feb 15, 2011
"mc.graphics.moveTo"and...mc.graphics.curveTo....to draw out some dynamic lines.What I need is some sort of equation that sets the "controlX" and "controlY"depending on how long the line is and in what position it is.The below is a pile of pap and doesnt actually work... but thats me trying to figure out some set equation for it...
Code:
lineForItem.graphics.moveTo(childDisplay.x, childDisplay.y);
var newB:int = familyData.mumsY - childDisplay.y / 2
[code].....

I have tried to draw a circle using drawing API curveTo function. But the result is not a perfect circle. Flash documents also suggest this method. Check this link >> This is the code I have used to make a circle of radius R and the registration point of circle movie clip is at the center.

I was hoping someone could help me working out some advanced data reformatting. What I'm hoping for is a function where I can input a value along with an array of key positions like so:
function remap(percentage:Number, keypoints:Array) { ...
The array would start with the minimum and end with the maximum point, with nested key points along the way. For example, I would input something like remap(0.25, [0:0,80:50,100:100] ) and the function would 'imagine' a spline curve graph from (0,0)-(100,100) with a key point of (80,50), then return the y value that is 25% along that graph.

I have a curveTo an anchor point and a control point.Then I have a function that will return the x and y of a point along that curve if I give it a number as a percentage of the curve (0 to 1).It looks like this, and works perfectly..
Code:
function drawOnCurve( interval:Number, x0,y0,x1,y1,x2,y2)
{
interval = Math.max( Math.min( 1, interval ), 0 );[code]....
x0,y0 are the start point, x1,y1 the control point and x2,y2 the final anchor point.But... I want to give it a _y value instead of a percentage (interval) and it return where on the curve that would intersect.

I want to add point to curve when i click on the curve ,make sure the Original point not change ,eg. a Original point is a control point after add it is Still a control point ，so，may be it is need add two point at the same time

I am using Senocular's code to dynamically create part of a circle using curveto.I am wondering how to change the start point, like where the circle outline starts. It is currently starting on the right of the circle, I would like it to start on top. How would I go about doing that?Here is Senocular's code:
Code:
// x: circles center x, y: circles center y
// a1: first angle, a2: angle to draw to, r: radius

I was wondering about MC and hey can help to lag a game out. I set up an advanced class system so i don't have to use MC to simulate walls, all i use isthe x,y,width and height. Well anyway since i don't need MC anymore I was wondering if there is a way to attach Graphics instead of MC cause a Graphics file size is relatively small than that of a graphic, I think. If anyone could tell me thats true and show me a way to attach graphics that would be nice. I haven't tried it yet but maybe if I exported the graphic from the library imihgt be able to call its name, but it doesn't have an instance name so im stuck.

Anybody got a method of drawing a line from the mouse down point to the mouses current position.
But taking into account the direction the mouse is moving in to make the curve look more natural and directional.
This is what i have currently which is basic and rubbish:
catapultLine.graphics.moveTo(startX, startY);
catapultLine.graphics.curveTo(Main.gameStage.mouse X/3, Main.gameStage.mouseY/3,Main.gameStage.mouseX, Main.gameStage.mouseY);

LineTo() and curveTo() provide basic level drawing. However, the lines these functions produce look like they were drawn by the line or pen tools. Is there any way, through either existing functions or through modifying current ones, that I could made the drawings done through actionscript look like they were drawn using the brush tool?
My first thought was to see if this was in default actionscript and could not find it. My second was to see if someone had already created the class, and while for a time I thought someone had, I lost the link . I guess I could always create the class myself, but I honestly have no starting point (like what algorithm flash uses to create its brushstrokes) and don't want to waste my time if something similar is already in existence.

Basically I'm using the curveTo function to draw some lines for flight paths, what I'm not sure how to do is dynamically finding the curve points, so for example if you look at the ryan air site: [URL]
current_line.graphics.curveTo(curveX, curveY, map.mouseX, map.mouseY);
I need to find the curveX and curveY

I've got some code that reveals a mask in that swooshy/wavy style, which starts of nice and smooth at the top of the reveal but as it gets further down the page it speeds up and doesn't look smooth.Here is the code. I've also attached the example of what it is doing.I've been looking at this code blankly for a couple days now and I'm still no furher forward.
Code:
//Global vars
mWidth = 600;

I'm just starting out with AS3, so I'm trying my hand as some of the more basic drawing functions, to try and get a handle on them. The problem I've hit is using 'curveTo' to create a smooth curve is creating some very poor aliasing results. Here is an example: [URL]
The first part (which is actually on the right) is a very simple curve from 50,50 to 100,100, through 100,50. I would have expected the end points of the line to be single pixel width, but it's aliased over two pixels.
The second part (on the left) shows why this is a problem for me. I'm trying to draw a basic shape outline with a semi-circle at the top, but it really doesn't look great (it looks shifted half a pixel to the left relative to the rest of the shape).

just download my project and look at the missile code. I need to find out the equation make it so that the fire that is attached in the mc moves as if it didn't inherit the missile's coordinates(i.e make it so the fire moves like it was outside the missile's mc, and doesn't move with it) I know it has something to do with the circular rotation code found in the tutorials but i just need someone to write out the code.

I would like to know if theirs a way where you can type in a text field something like "5*5".
And then on enter, the document would take the database and be able to return 25.
I am quite confused due to the fact that content that you input into a textfield must be a String and when you use the Number() converter the system gets confused.

I am very new to action script, and using action script 2.0, I am having a problem getting an input textbox to read in mathematical formulas. To enter 5x^2, the key sequence to be used is {5}{x}{2}. i.e., the characters must be formatted as it is being typed.
Ultimately, I want to enter equations like 5x^2-4x-2.
The textbox should not allow non-numerical characters other than x.
