Currently struggling with producing for labelling rivers. I need a curve offset to place the label on an invisible path next to the river instead of on the river itself. So now I need to implement the heuristic approximation method proposed by Tiller and Hanson. This involves a lot of paper and ink.

Image 1 shows the solution I am unhappy with. Image 2 shows the heuristic with simple control point translation. That's not good enough.

@kensanata wanted to say i *really* love the work you're doing around gaming, UI, and algorithmic processing.

Makes me want to figure out how to turn my business metrics into a campaign!

@sivy Hah. And it makes me want to stop writing code to manage permissions for external clients generating reports for fleet management or call center process design or whatever else I do for money during the day!
Thanks for the kind words. πŸ˜€
