PShape child transform
Feb 16th, 2009, 6:58pm  
Hello-

I am trying to figure out a way to get a child shape from a SVG file, and then transform that child shape using its own centroid as it's origin instead of the parent document's
origin.

It looks like its possible to somehow extract individual points from a path.. but I couldn't quite follow the docs on that. (All the child objects will be SVG paths)

PShape is alpha or beta quality - I understand..  But I was hoping I could hack out a way to do this.  Any ideas?

Maybe you would want to try Geomerative which gives you access to points, handles and centroids of Shapes (which can be loaded from SVGs).

Interesting..  I have heard of this library but didn't realize it could handle SVG.  Looks cool, I will give it a try.

Thanks Ricard-
