Help out there. I am doing a third year graphics project and I have not been able to get my amiga to draw thick lines for my curves. The curevs I am drawing are Bezier and B Spline curves and to get over 90% I must be able to get the lines to change thickness. I can do it by implementing the Bresenham's line drawing algorithm but I was after something faster. I have tried using the AreaDraw command but I run out of memory when trying to draw a Bezier Curve with over 500 points in it. I have also tried drawing a polygon with the outline set to the curve. This works for a small number of points but when the number is greater than 200 it starts corrupting my screen. I have tried increasing the size of my buffer in the AreaInfo to 1Meg but it still corrupts the screen. If anyone has a solution to this problem could they EMail me at the address below. Thanks in advance Neil. cpnfs@marlin.jcu.edu.au "Greetings from the tropical north" squires@fantome.jcu.edu.au
