divide line evenly???

[MikeP]

is there a command or even does anyone know a lisp routine to select a line and evenly divide it in to however sections you want?

[StykFacE]

try using the DIVIDE command.

try using the DIVIDE command.

In the drop down DRAW>POINT>DIVIDE

You can get a button as well.

[Strix]

you may also want to change your node style so you can locate those points easily

can't remember how to do it, but I know I started a thread a while back asking how to do it, so you should be able find the answer quite easily

Format>Point Style

[Lazer]

Format>Point Style

or type ddptype if your a shortcut junkie

[Alan Cullen]

Correct me if I'm wrong.....but DIVIDE places points along the line (as opposed to nodes).....

So the variables required would be.....
PDMODE .......change the shape/type of point
PDSIZE ......change the size of the point

[gcp310]

i thought nodes and points were the same thing?

now, keep in mind that the divide coammnd, or even the measure command, places nodes/points at given intervals but does not actually cut up the line-- or pline-- into seperate entitites...to do that you will either have to BREAK them individually or use a lisp which i think there'S already one around here somewhere...

[zars]

Measure could be useful as well.
