The arc implementation is janky

[jaredly]

^ in the middle is supposed to be 4 even quarters of a pie, w/ no space between them. Also the pink ring is done w/ ellipse -- there's not supposed to be a gap.

and this is supposed to be two halves of a pie.

also see the overlap ^ where the dot on the right is brighter. This is an ellipse that's semitransparent.

Mhh, seems like it might be an off-by-one issue. Can you post the code snippets so that I can make sure I understand what's happening? Not surprised there are a couple artifacts with alpha, that was added after most of the other code. Will try to clean it up.

It's not an off-by-one, it's the fact that the arcs have a limit on the granularity that they render. It's because we're doing like a 30-sided polygon, and if the length of the arc wants to be 29.5 of those sides, we only render 29 sides.

Here's an example of animating an arc, and you can see how jerky it is https://schmavery.github.io/reprocessing/?gist=69fb9c2733776faab624d45046c1bfa7

Right, I was hoping it wouldn't be that haha. Thanks for double checking. Might need some fancy logic to handle the ends of the arc properly.

although actually maybe there is an off-by-one in there too, see https://schmavery.github.io/reprocessing/?gist=3e929c7dc5392e2cbc8d17aa1cff4f3d

This is a good reminder for me to fix the gist capability in the web env.. Thanks for the examples!

Hopefully 54be1fc4dd4d9a8a5753d765b8b4124ab8dcf45b fixes this?

Will close these arc issues. Please lmk if they don't help and we can reopen them. Thanks!
