  • Error with getVertex() from SVG file
    Hello,

    I have successfully loaded a svg file (just using an octagon) I created with Illustrator CS5.  My goals are to move the vertices around  once loaded; however, I receive an array out of bound exception directed at  

    duplicate = shapes[i].getVertex(j);

    My code is below:
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    PShape squiggle;
    PShape[] shapes;
    PVector duplicate;

    void setup() {
      size(800, 800);
      smooth();
      shapeMode(CENTER);

      squiggle = loadShape("octagon1.svg");
      shapes = squiggle.getChildren();
      squiggle.disableStyle();

      noLoop();
    }


    void draw() {

      background(255);
      for (int i = 0; i < shapes.length; i++) {
        int v = shapes[i].getVertexCount();
        println("vertex count: " + v);
        println("shapes.length: " + shapes.length);
        
        for (int j = 0; j < 8; j++) {
        duplicate = shapes[i].getVertex(j);
        println("duplicate x is: " + duplicate.x);
        duplicate.x += random(-1, 1);
        duplicate.y += random(-1, 1);
        shapes[i].setVertex(j, duplicate); 
       
          // int code = shapes[i].getVertexCode(j);
          // println("vertex code for vertex #" + j + ": " + code);
        }
        shape(shapes[i]);
      }
     
    }
