Object following polyline in AutoCAD 2012
Object following polyline in AutoCAD 2012
(OP)
My boss "recalls" a command where he thinks he should be able to make an object "follow" a polyline. No, not extrude to a polyline, but move along it. I told him I couldn't recall a command like that but that I'd check here to see.
Thoughts anyone ?
Thanks -
Charley.

For an actual animation, I think you'd need a routine (lisp, VBA etc)

The first thing that came to mind was anipath
but no, maybe sweep
no, maybe measure or divide with block
no, new arraypath command
what are you really really trying to do?
Can you attach the file here?

This is a useful tool for grading linear projects... less so on confined commercial developments.
