Hi guys

 

I've created a joint display which plots a spacecurve and an arrow which represents the tangent to the curve:

I've written this in the animation format so I can move the tangent arrow along the curve, however when I replace

arrow(subs(s=0,p),subs(s=0,ptan),width=0.3,length=4)

with

arrow(subs(s=A,p),subs(s=A,ptan),width=0.3,length=4)

I get the error:

Error, (in Plot:-AnalyzeData:-StandardizeData) points cannot be converted to floating-point values

I have tried animating the arrow alone(see below) and this works fine, so the problem is coming from try to pass the animation parameter A into the display array of multiple plots.
