Symbolized curves and wavy lines in SFV 2.4

Question

Hi everyone,
How can I create curves (can be filled ones) and wavy lines using Flexviewer. 
I want to use them as symbols like line linesymbol or cartographicLine symbol.

Thanks in advance.

Omega_Cancer,

Not sure 100% what it is you need, but you may find the following links useful. Not exactly what you desire but it is a start. I haven't yet used it in anger myself on an ESRI map, but plan to in the near future.

Main page: http://code.google.com/p/flexiweather/

Demo of curves/symbols: https://ogcie.iblsoft.com/FlexiWeather/trunk/Examples/Example2.swf

Of course, if ESRI would like to add this kind of capability to the ESRI Flex API, that would be great 😉

Cheers

Ian

Omega Cancer,

What you are attempting to do is draw a curve on the graphics sprite that all UIComponents inherit. That is not going to work the way you want it to. In you code you create a new com.esri.ags.Graphic, to actually have that graphic draw in map coordinates you will need to set it's geometry property to some actual com.esri.ags.geometry object like a Polygon. Polygons and Polylines are made up of Rings or Paths which are just point arrays. I don't know of any true curve capability in the AGS Flex API.

Thank you very much, although it did not solved my problem but thanks again for your precious time.
