BG Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 I want to draw rafters in section on a curved roof. Is there a way to do a polar array and specify the distance between rafters, the number and the radius? Or is there another way? Thanks BG VWA11 WinXP Quote Link to comment
mike m oz Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 Use Circular Array: - Place a locus at the centre of the arc and use Next Mouse Click and Rotate Duplicates. - Determine the Angle by dividing the angle between the start and the end points and dividing by the number of gaps. (Use temporary lines from the centre point to the start and end points to determine the overall angle.) - Delete the locus and the temporary lines when you have completed the circular array. A Polar Array would create duplicates along a selected angle line. This feature doesn't exist in VW yet - it hopefully will in the near future. Quote Link to comment
