rbulph Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 There's rather a bewildering choice of methods to draw a curve. Do any of them allow me to draw a curve beginning and ending at known points, and specifying areas of the graphics object that the curve is to avoid? Or do I have to figure out points away from the areas to be avoided to cause the curve to avoid them? Quote
Cags Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 I believe you will have to calculate the points manually. Quote Anybody looking for a graduate programmer (Midlands, England)?

rbulph Posted January 11, 2006 Author Posted January 11, 2006 (edited) OK, figured that would probably be the case. I think I'll achieve what I want by drawing right angles that are rounded at the corners. It doesn't seem that any one of the graphics methods will do this for me, so I'll just have to draw the two lines of each right angle a little bit short at the corners, and fill in the gap with a quarter circle. Time to get the trigonometry textbook out. Edited January 11, 2006 by rbulph Quote
