Instructions

Pick a pen color with the Color picker. Pick a wheel and hole using the arrow buttons. Change the fixed wheel using 'o' and 'p' keys NEW - Undo your last curve Cycle will draw a single curve with the number of points indicated in the Wheel text. You can then change wheels and holes and colors to add different curves. Add your favorites to the comments: Here's an example Red-30:1,3,5 Purple-45:7,9,11 Yellow-60:13,15,17

Description

Thanks for the Feature!! I will certainly work on some of the todo items below and re-release. In a real spirograph set you set a fixed wheel on your paper, choose a moving wheel for the center and a hole in the center wheel for your pen. Carefully spinning the inner wheel with the pen will create a curve (that joins back up with itself.) I have tried to duplicate this process in Scratch. TBD: Global save of curves Beta solid fixed wheels. press 'x' to cycle through - buggy! Use 'o' and 'p' to reset to rings Curves are saved in list - need to figure out how to export v0.7 - Initial release v0.8 Bug fixes With wheels hidden curves draw instantly v0.9 Undo!
