SWFShape->drawCurveTo

(PHP 4 >= 4.0.5)

SWFShape->drawCurveToDraws a curve

Description

int drawCurveTo ( float $controlx , float $controly , float $anchorx , float $anchory [, float $targetx ], float $targety )
Warning

This function is EXPERIMENTAL. The behaviour of this function, its name, and surrounding documentation may change without notice in a future release of PHP. This function should be used at your own risk.

swfshape->drawcurveto() draws a quadratic curve (using the current line style, set by swfshape->setline()) from the current pen position to (anchorx ,anchory ) using (controlx ,controly ) as a control point. That is, head towards the control point, then smoothly turn to the anchor point.

With 6 parameters, it draws a cubic bezier to point (targetx , targety ) with control points (controlx , controly ) and (anchorx , anchory ).

for those new this all this, "anchor" is where you want to end up and "control" is the point you would go to if you were drawing a square.

for example, this would draw a quarter circle
<?php
    $s
->movePenTo(100, 100);
   
$s->drawLineTo(200, 100);
   
$s->drawCurveTo(200, 200, 100, 200);
   
$s->drawLineTo(100, 100);
?>
