Calculating points along a curved path

Hey guys!

It’s been such a long time away from Kirupa! :slight_smile:

I’m developing some kind of dynamic time line. I want a curved line to represent time and dynamically put points over the curve representing the years. Maybe even have a slider along that curved line.

I was thinking of creating the curve at runtime with bezier so that each time it would be different.

Adding the slider is easy… but I really don’t know where to start for putting movieclips along the curve dynamically.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
