This command divides the distance of a LINE, ARC or PolyLINE and locates points at the computed distances. It also interpolates elevations (To interpolate elevations the points picked must have an AutoCAD or real Z/elevation). The figure below shows a graphic example.
Interpolate Elevations <Y>: press Enter
Point w/elevation to calculate from?
Pick point or point number: 1
2nd Point w/elevation?
Pick point or point number: 2
These points don't have to be on the entity selected to divide.
Select Entity to Divide: pick point on entity
Number of Segments/Divisions: 4
The command then locates 3 points along the selected entity.
After selecting the points above (top), new points are located along the selected entity (above, bottom). |
