Kevin Posted November 12, 2003 Share Posted November 12, 2003 Is there a way to do a duplicate array on a sloping curve? If I wanted to place an object at a repeating given distance along the wire of a spring is this possible. This would also be the way to make a curved stair with each tread arrayed in a curve but each tread higher than the next. Any ideas?

Kevin Posted November 19, 2003 Author Share Posted November 19, 2003 Thank you. I have never used that tool. I just tried it out and it works great in 2d. Would you or anyone know how to do the same in 3d? Quote Link to comment
