for those new this all this, "anchor" is where you want to end up and "control" is the point you would go to if you were drawing a square.
for example, this would draw a quarter circle
<?php
$s->movePenTo(100, 100);
$s->drawLineTo(200, 100);
$s->drawCurveTo(200, 200, 100, 200);
$s->drawLineTo(100, 100);
?>
SWFShape->drawCurveTo
(PHP 4 >= 4.0.5)
SWFShape->drawCurveTo — Draws a curve
Description
int drawCurveTo
( float $controlx
, float $controly
, float $anchorx
, float $anchory
[, float $targetx
], float $targety
)
Warning
This function is EXPERIMENTAL. The behaviour of this function, its name, and surrounding documentation may change without notice in a future release of PHP. This function should be used at your own risk.
swfshape->drawcurveto() draws a quadratic curve (using the current line style, set by swfshape->setline()) from the current pen position to (anchorx ,anchory ) using (controlx ,controly ) as a control point. That is, head towards the control point, then smoothly turn to the anchor point.
With 6 parameters, it draws a cubic bezier to point (targetx , targety ) with control points (controlx , controly ) and (anchorx , anchory ).
