Distribute objects on a polyline

frstudent2
Hi,

  I am trying to make one of the following things which would all solve my problem :
- Convert a polyline to N dots distributed along it
- Distributes N objects one a polyline (with equal distance along the polyline)
- Convert a doted or dashed polyline to individual dots or lines

  For now, I only manage to do it by exporting to SVG and making the conversion with another tool.

  is it possible or do I have to try learning the lua api ?

Hi,

You can divide a line or a circle arc into elements using the plugins 'divide'. Ticks can be displayed or the line can be divided (cut into n pieces)

Unfortunately, it does not work with polyline.
