Q. I would like to arrange the objects along a path according to the rules.
A. The Sweep Translate feature allows the user to perform these tasks.
The Sweep Translate feature moves and copies target objects along any selected path.
The example below shows this feature being used to copy the selected target object along the semi-circle path with R=10.0m.
Pattern Spacing & User Defined
The target object (Solid) is copied at intervals of 5m along the length of the defined arc path with R=10.0m. (Figure. 1)
The target object (Solid) is copied at intervals of 2m, 4m, 6m, 8m, and 10m along the defined length of the arc path with R=10.0m. (Figure. 2)
Figure. 1 Pattern Spacing (5.0m)
Figure. 2 User Defined (2, 4, 6, 8, 10m)
Uniform Divisions
The target object (Solid) is copied to points that divide the defined arc path (R=10.0m) into five equal intervals. (Figure. 3)
Min. Clearance : This is used to offset the end point by 1.0m and then copy the target object to points that divide the defined arc path (R=10.0m) into five equal intervals. (Figure. 4)
Figure. 3 Uniform Divisions (Min. Clearance : 0.0m)
Figure. 4 Uniform Divisions (Min. Clearance : 1.0m)
Uniform Max. Spacing
The target object (Solid) is copied at an interval smaller than the Uniform Max. Spacing of 10m along the defined arc path (R=10.0m) (Figure. 5)
Since the circumference of the semi-circle is πr=31.4m, the target object will be copied four times when a value smaller than 10m is applied. (Figure. 6)
