Challenge #251: Lunacy

AYXAcademy — Tue, 13 Sep 2022 14:39:49 GMT

A solution to last week's challenge can be found here.

The word lunacy has its origins in the latin term for the moon (luna). For this week's challenge, we will embark on a little lunacy of our own and try to approximate the phases of the moon in Designer. Transform the 7 circles in the Input data file into polygons that resemble the assigned lunar phase in that row.

My crescents look better than my gibbous but I couldn't get it to look any better.

My gibbous moons could use some work but not terrible:

I tried too hard to copy the output exactly which resulted in a massive workflow... Although, I did create a cool batch macro that will create the points of a circle to make it more dynamic.

My first try to a weekly challenge. My crescents look better than the gibbous, but a good try nonetheless.

I'm sure there is a simpler way to do this. Looking forward to checking out other solutions.

I really wanted to get the curves right so I did a bit of math to figure out the proper shape for the mask for the crescent and gibbous. I was a bit lazy and didn't put the calcs in the workflow, just used the mask offset and radius ratios that I calculated manually.

This challenge really stretched me, I don't often work with spatial data.
