Calculate text position on a dynamic connector?

[Brian Mitchell]

Are there any cool math formulas that will help me move the text to a
specific point on a dynamic connector?

For instance, I have a cloud in the middle of my drawing with about 70
dynamic connectors coming out and I want the text on all the connectors to
be the same distance from the cloud but I can't figure out the X,Y math
because the TxtPinX and TxtPinY are based on an X,Y coordinate system for
the connector itself.

Thanks in advance!!

Look up the XYtoPage method.
(and PagetoXY)

Thank you for the reply. I can figure out the coordinates for points I know
like BeginX and BeginY. What I am trying to do in find the coordinates for a
point I don't know, like a point 75% down the line.

Thanks!

I think I found the answer in the XYFromPage method. You pointed me in the
right direction, and thanks for the help!!
