@pascal That is very useful to know! I did not even notice those options before, too busy calculating the distance for the next copy.
@jeremyp Knowing that you could also do it this way: Copy your dovetail curve the required number of times, at some equal distance. Draw a line from the beginning of the first to the end of the last. Draw the line that you want to divide at the required length. Use the “Flow” command, with options “Rigid” and “Stretch” checked, to transpose the copies to the correct positions.
OMG! I love you!
I’ve been asking for this for ever now!!!
Thank you so much for making my life a 100 times easier:) There should be a button for this in the array section.
I was having the same issue, not being able to array objects along a curve, completely within the curve. I did find this topic before I made a new topic asking the same question and tried to download the Python Sctipt file “ArrayBetween.py” Jeff Hammond uploaded on April 3.
When I tried that I got this error message: “The page you requested doesn’t exist or is private.”
The same thing happened yesterday and today with a file I uploaded in another topic when I and other users got the same error message trying to download that file.
You’re kidding me.
It worked!
Thanx.
Now I know how to use this fantastic command the right way.
Believe me when I tell you I read the User Manual!
Cheers …
Thanx for the reminder, Jeff.
I prefer to do the copy along curve, b/c once the curve is broken up, it’s busted.
It’s too much added junk to save a copy of the curve and then break up the original.
Cheers …
