Something i have wanted to try and do for a long time in Flash for a while is figure out a way of drawing cubic curves, like what you would expect from illustrator, whilst the code to produce to results of true cubic curves is quite heavy, i have figured out a light weight solution which does not produce true cubic curves, but its a good solution to what i wanted to do i think.

When you open the movie just click anywhere to create a new curve control point for the start and end point, you can also move the points by clicking and dragging them.

Next step for this is animating along a curve, which with a little bit of maths from the great robert penner is not as difficult as you might imagine. more coming soon.
