Unequal Divide Distance - Random points distance from a fixed list into a curve

I’ve searched the whole inter-webs and seems I cannot find a solution to this problem.
The problem is simple. example;

This is “Divide Distance”, not “Divide Length” so “mass addition” does not make sense here.

How do I get in the curve a point after point following the list order?

You want divide a curve with list of distances?

I would suggest using the mass addition, then use evaluate length with normalized to False

Sorry, I doesn’t work.
Because its the distance from point to point, not the length from point to point of the curve.

You got it, it’s exactly that!

I guess the key is a Python script?
Because I does not seem possible with standard GH.

Yes it is not possible with the actual component , and this work only with 2D curve.

You could also use a loop with anemone for instance…

Thanks a lot!
This is a very useful tool.

Also, I just got Fennec :wink:
Cheers mate,

Nice! I tried this, make a loop using the circle cross method, but somehow I couldn’t get it to work, but you nailed it!
Thanks, it’s also a viable solution (which can be modified to work in 3D)
Cheers!
