I realize this is a ridiculously basic question, but I’m trying to learn Bezier curves and ActionScript at the same time. I understand what’s going on with the curve itself, but in your code you use GreenDot and ControlPoint. Where are those defined?

Don´t you ever use type declarations??

Thanks for sharing your code !
I wonder if there is a way to mix your class with the dashLine class to be able to draw curve dashLine.

[...] I don’t have to worry about that as I could find this great class taking care of all that math I lost out as a very happy but maybe not so focused student. [...]

Thanks for sharing that, Tom; I will definitely check it out. (Sorry your comment didn’t show up right away. It was caught by the spam filter for some reason.)

Hey, we built a small fast bezier library for AS3, we’ve open sourced it so feel free to give it a try:

I don’t know of similar single Flex solutions, although I haven’t really looked. When originally writing this, I hadn’t even considered Flex and that that Flash CS3/4 would contain packages not available in Flex. So this was interesting to learn.

Heya, do you happen to know if there is a similar solution for Flex, aside from the Degrafa library. Since I only need this one for my grand project pathfinding rendering engine I love it and it works smooth enough, but since I’m building it based on an AS3 project in Flashdevelop, it is basically Flex and can’t use natively FL – library stuff. I’ve circumvented it by using a swc with the necessary controls and this lovely cubicbezier class, but it’s a bit messy and I’d rather have it all in Flex

Once again thank you for this, cheers

fl.* package is not part of flex.
Its a package shipped with flash CS3 (i guess with CS4 too)
The default location is:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash CS3\en\Configuration\ActionScript 3.0\Classes\fl\
