wire parameters

hi, friends, I have two cases of wire parameters issue. 1- the right one when the dummy has movement on the path ( back and forth) should the arrow shape rotate just the one direction and (desired amount) degree.2- the left one should the starting point of the dummy movement be middle of the line(middle vertices) when it goes to right the right Cylinders should it grow (Diameter) and the left one should shrink down (Diameter)and inverse.
thankyou so muchUntitled picture.png

Not sure what you are asking in these two actions.

#1, do you wish to be able to move the point002 back and forth and have the arrow rotate in one direction only and the amount of the rotation is proportional to the absolute change in position?  If so, you need to be able to get information about the previous position of the point and compare it with the current position.  This is similar to the need in this thread where a script controller is used to get the position in the previous frame. 

#2 Is this a similar request in that you want the size of the cylinders only to grow like the pumping up of a tire?

thanks leeminardi the left one I did it hit reaction manager(wire solution is a wanted ). but on the right side, the arrow should have a motion like the red arrow that I animated it manually.Untitled picture.png

I haven't had much time to experiment with this and may not until after the holidays.  Perhaps someone else wants to offer a solution.
