Orient to Curve in 2D

Rhino Rhino for Windows

I’m working on this map and have small rectangular bars on transit lines. Is there a way to orient them all to the curves quickly without manually rotating each of them?

Thanks,
Paul

Hi Paul - if you get the first one oriented, ArrayCrv can help.

If the objects are already in place, you’ll need a script I suppose.

Yeah, ArrayCrv is useful but when things are unevenly spaced, like subway stops, it can be trickier. Currently trying to work out a Copy Along Curve script that orients the objects

Hi Paul - try:

Set the first object at the start of the curve oriented correctly.
CPlane > Curve to the same end of the curve.
OrientOnCrv, Copy=Yes and Perpendicular.
