chrisdop Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 i'm looking for either a method of duplicating rectangles along a polyline but allowing the ployline to remain editable; or, if not, is there anywhere an idiot's guide [ as i'm a complete novice ] to elementary vectorscript programming?

RickBern Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 Look at the Duplicate on Path tool (option-p) Look into the help files, it's got a lot of options and should do whatever you want. Rick Quote Link to comment
Tom K Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 If you are using version 12 try the repetitive unit tool. Create a symbol in one of the drawing files in libraries>defaults>repetitive unit>... The symbol could be a simple rectangle. Rep. Unit tool repeats a symbol along a polyline, you can edit the polyline, and how often the symbol repeats. I thought this might also be a cool way to create custom line types, with a repeating SAN, GAS, C, H, along the line. I haven't tried that yet though. Quote Link to comment
