objective c - Having a hard time understanding NSBezierPath's curveToPoint: method -

-

i'm trying grips drawing (fairly basic) shapes in cocoa. understand how create paths straight edges (duh!), when comes doing curves, can't head around inputs produce shaped curve. specifically, have no idea how controlpoint1: , controlpoint2: arguments method influence shape.

i'm trying approximate shape of tab in google chrome:

google chrome tab

and code i'm using is:

-(void)drawrect:(nsrect)dirtyrect {     nssize size = [self bounds].size;      cgfloat height = size.height;     cgfloat width = size.width;      nsbezierpath *path = [nsbezierpath bezierpath];     [path setlinewidth:1];      [path movetopoint:nsmakepoint(0, 0)];      [path curvetopoint:nsmakepoint(width * 0.1, height)          controlpoint1:nsmakepoint(width * 0.05, height)          controlpoint2:nsmakepoint(width * 0.03, height * 0.05)];      [path linetopoint:nsmakepoint(width * 0.9, height)];      [path curvetopoint:nsmakepoint(width, 0)          controlpoint1:nsmakepoint(width * 0.95, height)          controlpoint2:nsmakepoint(width * 0.97, height * 0.05)];      [path closepath];      [[nscolor colorwithcalibratedwhite:0.98 alpha:1] set];     [path fill];      [[nscolor colorwithcalibratedwhite:0.6 alpha:1] set];     [path stroke]; }

i'm failing horribly.

see, why can't have nice things :(

my attempt

can give me pointers how think when comes drawing curves? example draws path great too, it's understanding these inputs curvetopoint:controlpoint1:controlpoint2: that's holding me back.

update | @ahruman's answer got start taking shape. it's not 100% (missing curves on bottom corners, it's symmetrical shape @ least :)

getting there

the line between current drawing point (implicit) , control point 1 tangent of curve @ beginning. line between control point 2 , “to” point tangent @ end of curve. these correspond ends of 2 tangent controls see in vector drawing application bézier paths. if haven’t used one, inkscape free.

mysql - Why there can be only one TIMESTAMP column with CURRENT_TIMESTAMP in DEFAULT clause? -

-
why there can 1 timestamp column current_timestamp in default or on update clause? create table `foo` ( `productid` int(10) unsigned not null, `addeddate` timestamp not null default current_timestamp, `updateddate` timestamp not null default current_timestamp on update current_timestamp ) engine=innodb; the error results: error code : 1293 incorrect table definition; there can 1 timestamp column current_timestamp in default or on update clause this limitation, due historical, code legacy reasons, has been lifted in recent versions of mysql: changes in mysql 5.6.5 (2012-04-10, milestone 8) previously, @ 1 timestamp column per table automatically initialized or updated current date , time. restriction has been lifted. timestamp column definition can have combination of default current_timestamp , on update current_timestamp clauses. in addition, these clauses can used datetime column definitions. more information, see automati...
