Array along arc, spline, pline, etc.

[rickh]

Hello All,

First off, Thanks for this site and everyone that posts on it....I have recieved a lot of great info just reading through forums.

This routine arrays selected objects along an arc, spline, pline, helix, at offsets, rotations, etc...

-edit- User selects object(s), basepoint of object(s), array path, starting end of path, option to rotate object(s) relative to path - at user defined angle, offset distance, and using Divide or Measure methods of spacing. For Measure option, last option is to place another object at end of path or not.

Why it dosn't work? I see unknown command "MOCORO". May be I'v given wrong commands
i did not understand "starting end of path"

[rickh]

For MOCORO, it is an Express tool. For "starting end of path," it is asking for one end of the line, spline, etc. to start the array from. For example, if I draw a line from left to right, I can choose to start the array path from the left end or right end of the line (this makes a difference if using the 'measure' option, and it defines the positive/negative offset side). Maybe my choice of wording is confusing....open to suggestions.

I'm not an Express tools guru, so I can't help much in finding the MOCORO command other than searching around online (I only heard about it from AlanJT).

Yes...I've understood it, when my colleague used your lisp successfully on AutoCad with Express tool...thanks, good thing)

AutoCAD 2012 now has a path array...

...which by no means should keep you from programimg your own command.
