scribble_set_bezier(x1, y1, x2, y2, x3, y3, x4, y4)

Returns: N/A (0)

Argument	Name	Purpose
0	x1	Parameter for the cubic Bézier curve
1	y1	"
2	x2	"
3	y2	"
4	x3	"
5	y3	"
6	x4	"
7	y4	"

This function defines a cubic Bézier curve to shape text to. The four x/y coordinate pairs provide a smooth curve that Scribble uses as a guide to position and rotate glyphs.

The curve is positioned relative to the coordinate specified when calling scribble_draw() so that the first Bézier coordinate is at the draw coordinate. This enables you to move a curve without re-adjusting the values set in scribble_set_bezier() (which would regenerate the text element, likely causing performance problems).

If used in conjunction with scribble_set_wrap(), the total length of the curve is used to wrap text horizontally and overrides the value specified in scribble_set_wrap(). scribble_set_bezier() will not work with [fa_right] or [fa_center] alignment. Instead, you should use [pin_right] and [pin_center].
