So yes. The ActionScript Dynamic illustration again. This time it’s got a user-defined path. I built a simple, very user unfriendly interface to draw a line (It’s the wiggle actually) which captures the xml. Then when you go to the dynamic movie which attaches the balls it looks for the co-ords and drops them randomly around that line, getting small the further from the start point. Then draws a kinda of angry looking bunch of lines which follows the direction of the flow.
Lovely jubbly.
