Curved array

Hi,
I tried to make an instance copy, but the result is not what I desire.
I attach the part and the image to understand.

Thank you for some solution.

RE: Curved array

I tried to open your file but it is a later version of NX.  To get what you are looking for, you will can create an instance of the rectangular block that is centered where the line and arc of profile meet.  Then you can array that instance and it will stay aligned to the center of the arc.

RE: Curved array

OK, here's what you want (see attached file).  In this particular case, to get the result you desire the path needs to START at the CENTER of the 'block'.

To an Engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.
