28 Jul 2009	Fast and Robust Curve Intersections Computes intersection points of two curves. Author: Douglas Schwarz	Yuri, no problem! I'm glad it's resolved and that you're still following this thread. -Doug
28 Jul 2009	Fast and Robust Curve Intersections Computes intersection points of two curves. Author: Douglas Schwarz	It bothered me that I never resolved Yuri's issue so I just took another look at it and realized that his code has a bug. When he gets X2 and Y2 he is using the handle H1 instead of H2. After fixing that there is no problem.
25 Jun 2009	uipickfiles: uigetfile on steroids Many-featured, platform independent file and directory picker. Author: Douglas Schwarz	J W, what platform are you using and what kinds of files are those? Do the hidden files somehow pair up with non-hidden versions so you have both ._abc.txt and abc.txt? It would be easy to add a feature so that hidden files are not displayed in uipickfiles as long as we can identify them. Tell me more.
08 Apr 2009	Fast and Robust Curve Intersections Computes intersection points of two curves. Author: Douglas Schwarz	Yuri, Please email me a mat-file and m-file that demonstrate what you are saying and I will investigate further. Doug
08 Apr 2009	Fast and Robust Curve Intersections Computes intersection points of two curves. Author: Douglas Schwarz	Yuri, If you zoom in on the supposed intersection point I think you'll find that there is no intersection at all. Remember, those circles are made up of line segments and so are actually polygons with N sides. For most values of N the two polygons won't even touch. In fact, the closest they can ever come is to touch at just one point and because of floating point round-off effects, my routine may or may not find that point. Doug
