The problem is that -LabsArray does not bypass the dialog - which, I guess, is understandable as this is just a draft version (lab). But I would also wish that all dialogs have keyboard shortcuts, which at the moment is lacking in (many?) released commands⌠That probably opens a can of worms with respect to what has focus and receives keyboard input. I find FindText to be an example of how it should not workâŚ
Dale, is there a list somewhere showing all the commands available in the Rhino5LabTools ? I checked this link, http://wiki.mcneel.com/labs/home but I think itâs outdated.
Hi, I keep wanting to select two objects which are exact same, like bolts or rivets, and simply say make e.g 5 between these.
In Freehand it was Blend, select two lines or circles or squares or whatever, even circle to a square, select blend and type the number of objects inbetween. It would even transform as it goes from circle to square.
Command ArrayBetween
select start item
select end item
qty between
one could even have this devoid of x y z so it works across a 3D space
as it is, one has to measure the distance and do maths.
We are more likely to know where two objects are and want an array between, but the command doesnt have an option for this.
Steve,
This is a bit more work than youâd like but involves no math. Draw a line between the 2 items, call the Divide command, and enter the number of divisions you want. It will place a point at each division. You can copy to the points.

Any update on this in V6 or V7? I have yet to figure out how to do an array between points so I donât have to manually calculate distance between objects
Hello - no - but a cheat is to make the array a little too short, move the last item to the desired location and then use Distribute on all the arrayed objects to even out the spacing.
