Subject: RE: FLASH: formule needed
From: Wilbrink, Jos

Thanks a lot for your comments and suggestions, but i still don't
get it.
Because the only think I know is the radius, and no X or Y

say radius = 10
x^2 + y^2 = r^2
so x^2 + y^2 = 100

oke the first point is easy:
x=10;y=0
but then what,
let's say I want the circle to contain 360 dots

Maybe someone can help me out here,

Thanks,
