Re: [Inkscape-devel] Parameterized path question, for those of you familiar with Geom: and however it implements beziers.

Anyway, for the first case what I am looking for is a function that will return {x1,y2} given {x1,y1} on a Bezier and the parameter "d", a length along the Bezier. Is there such a method? (The equivalent for a line is not a problem.)

The functions for this are in bezmisc.py, of course, otherwise convert2dashes.py wouldn't work. I can translate the Python to C++, but suspect these same functions may already exist elsewhere in the code, and it would be silly to reinvent (retranslate) that wheel.
