Polyline points

[wannabe]

How do set all the polyline segments to be evenly spaced? Nothing to do with putting points along the line.

Are you asking how to make each segment of a polyline the exact same length?

I'm not quite sure what you mean by evenly spaced. Are you looking to create a regular polygon? Or are you looking for something to lock the length of the segment while you're drawing it so you're only selecting the angle? If its the latter I usually handle a situation like that by specifying the line in the command line. When it prompts to select next point type @XX

I've created a polyline, but to use a lisp routine to draw a line between two polylines it need the grips to be accurately and evenly spaced to work properly.

 

When constructing the lines I had to follow a contour, but sometimes a point in mid air, so it proved to be incosistent grip wise.

[ReMark]

You want to draw a polyline between two polylines and you want the lines to be evenly spaced even when following a "contour". Is that correct? And using offset won't work for you?

[wannabe]

The lisp routine uses the grips to work out a line that runs directly between two other polylines.

 

I can offset the lines with ease, but they vary in profile, so offsetting one wont mean its between the two exactly.

 

The long winded way is to use m2p (mtp).

This comes up fairly often, maybe this lisp routine is what you want.
