how to graph animationCurves in 3d space?

Hello everyone, I have a function that can extract the coordinates (control points) of a animationCurve, but I was wondering if someone knows how I can graph the curves in 3d space, with draw gizmos or debug.drawLine I can make lines from one point to another but that does not generate the real curve that forms.

Thank you for reading

 

The Handles class has a bunch of methods including DrawBezier that should be able to do this, but it's for drawing curves in the Scene view, and I don't think there is a way to apply these for drawing to the actual Game viewport.

If you need them visible in the Game view, you will probably need to use a LineRenderer. If you have the Keyframes of the animation, you can use them to give instructions to the renderer. The Handles.MakeBezierPoints method might be able to get you an array of points using the bezier tangents, but you'll have to convert time-space tangents to world-space somehow, which will take some thinking.

Does this sound like something you want to try?

I also found this tutorial which will probably help a bit. It isn't for animation curves, though, so it isn't a solution on its own.

 

What @Hyblademin said... just choose a number of samples to take across the range from min to max of your AnimationCurve and evaluate the curve at those points, and use the results to produce a line renderer with that many points.

 

uhh.. google much?

the solution i posted there is applied to UI but you can use the same method to get it in 3D space and do what ever with the normal line renderer.

 

these solutions are great thank you very much
@ Kurt-Dekker, I had not thought about that, it is so obviously
