Hi,

 

I was curious if there is a way to render out the bezier path with the plugin? This would be helpful in setting up points.

 

I see you have a path created in the example, but there's no source so I'm not sure how to go about it.

I think I have a good example, but not quite sure about the 'curviness' settings etc.

Thanks!

 

(This is working in Chrome, I just threw this together out of my main project, so the positioning is funky. You have to scroll down as the taxi animates from the bottom)

Sorry, BezierPlugin doesn't have any code that handles rendering the actual path. In the demo you saw, the path is just  an image. 

 

It is totally possible to use the same points that BezierPlugin uses for drawing the path with a canvas element or maybe even Raphael.js has something that would work. 

 

This is s very basic demo using KineticJS (which is a canvas library) with BezierPlugin that shows how you can move control points on a bezier path to modify an animation:

Here is a codepen example that uses BezierPlugin data to postion a series of dots on a Bezier path, just to give you an idea of some other capabilities:
