Hello dear developers...
One of my function gets a starting point and an ending point. Both are 'CGPoint's. I want to create a a sprite node at the starting point and then, I want to stretch that node to the ending point. How can I do that? Attention I don't want to change it's position, I want to resize it until X-Axis touches the ending point. Thanks in advance...

I want to create 2d game. The game is similar to the Scale Puzzle. I've already created nearly all the functionality. Only the last remains.
.
This is example.
And that's how I draw shapes.
.
I click inside a white square, and after 1 seconds a square is drawn regardless of the position of the ball. (x,y).
Square is created programmatically, and it is added to the parent element "SquaresList" with name New Game Object.
How can i do, so that the violet field becomes larger, and in the middle of the screen.
I made it so that for every 3 clicks, "SquaresList" increases Scale by 0.25f, and get negative position of the ball. Example:
SquareList.transform.position = new Vector2(-ball.pos.x, -ball.pos.y)
This does not work correctly.
What options can be? (intersections, find the max/min point, math formulas) ?
Hi NoName :) Your method
SquareList.transform.position = new Vector2(-ball.pos.x, -ball.pos.y)
would work perfectly if your object does not inherit other objects and there positions. To fix this make sure that you reset the position of all other game objects that you use as containers.
I really want to know how to find the EXACT frame of an SKSpriteNode if it is rotated. Currently, the frame of an SKSpriteNode looks like this:
This frame is the rect.frame.
However, this frame includes a lot of empty space due to its zRotation. I don't want this empty space and instead want the frame of exactly the SKSpriteNode.
This is what I want:
How can I achieve this? If you have any idea how to find this 'exact' frame of an SKSpriteNode, I would really like to know. Please use SWIFT.
Thank you
This can be done.
Put a dummy node at the bottom left of your sprite that you know the exact size of. Probably use a perfect square. Anchor it's bottom left to the bottom left of your parent. The parent is the one you want the exact size definition of.
From there, two ways:
Scale the dummy sprite to the size of the sprite you're curious about, and use those measurements to determine where the sprite is and what size it is at any point in time.
Put another dummy sprite at the top right of the parent. In this case you can use the midpoint of your two dummy objects, you don't need to use their edges perfectly. Now you can find the position of these two dummies, at any time, and figure out the size/shape/outline of your sprite in world space units.

I have a CGPath that represents an ellipse. I have a sprite that follows the path around the ellipse. When I stop the follow action, I'd like to take the point of the ellipse I'm on and create a new CGPath, so that I can start moving around the ellipse at a later time from the same point.
Is there a simple way to change the starting point of a CGPath?
I have a node and I've fixed the position of that node. Then I added a sprite as a child of that node (which I've added earlier). After that I try to rotate the node by some angle.
As a result sprite is also rotating and its center point is position of node. Now my question is, how can I get the position of sprite?
Sprite position is the same - "Center of node".
I don't understand what exact position do you want to evaluate. And I hope follow methods will help you:
Each CCNode (and all sublcasses CCSprite, CCLayer etc) have follow helpers that very useful for evaluation coords between nodes:
- (CGPoint)convertToNodeSpace:(CGPoint)worldPoint;
- (CGPoint)convertToWorldSpace:(CGPoint)nodePoint;
- (CGPoint)convertToNodeSpaceAR:(CGPoint)worldPoint;
- (CGPoint)convertToWorldSpaceAR:(CGPoint)nodePoint;
I have a NSArray of points that make up a path. I can detect when it self-intersects. When this happens, I try to fill the path.
First I used CoreGraphics, now I'm using openGl to draw a triangle array. Doesn't work well as you can see in the image.
How do I fill only the circular area while leaving the "tail" alone? I was thinking of a reverse flood fill but don't think CG has any API functions for this...
Maybe instead of actually drawing the path you can just approximate the diameter of the path and draw a circle with your approximation.
Here is some code to detect a circle gesture on the iPhone:

Record all of the points in a doubly-linked list. When it comes time to fill, walk the list from the start and find the point that's closest to the end. Then, lineto that point, then lineto each point in reverse order, stopping with the second point in the list. The fill will implicitly close the path, which will jump from where you left off (the second point) back to the start (first) point.
This is just off the top of my head; you can play with a couple of variations on this to see what works best. You might record the closest previous node in each node, but this could get expensive for many nodes.
