I implemented another version that detects where either dx/dt or dy/dt is 0, and
splits the curve there. This works pretty well for all the curves I've tested
(except ones containing "cusps", or something close to a cusp, like p.moveTo(0,0);
p.curveTo(100,100,0,100,100,0);). Best of all, this:
> For example, the curve p.moveTo(0,0),p.curveTo(84.0, 62.0, 32.0, 34.0, 28.0, 5.0)
is no longer a problem.
There is another problem with this method (other than the cusps, which can probably
be handled easily as a special case): it is axis-dependent. Ideally, it shouldn't be
because the optimal subdivisions of a curve are at values of t that do not change
under rotations and translations, but with this method, the t values at which I split
the curve do change.
A better way would take into account curve flatness instead of changes in x or y
direction.
Thanks,
Denis.
