divide command does not display points along line

[Anonymous]

When using the DIVIDE command in Autocad, the program is supposed to
diplay points along the object that was divided. I do not see any
points. Am I missing out on a setting?

thanks

Change your pdmode to 3

You might resetting your point style to something different. The points
might be there...you just can't see them. Under Format pulldown go to
Point Style and change it to something else than a dot. ---Ken---

You can use this lisp to change your pmode to 3 automatically.

(defun c:ptx () (command "pdmode" "3"))

Gary,

These are called nodes (and can be snapped to with the
Object Snap NODE). These are made with point object(s) and
you can also use blocks when you divide.

What you need to change is your PDMODE, PDSIZE and possibly
do a REGEN. DDPTYPE or use the pulldown Format>Point Styles
(and choose something other than 0 or 1).

One other thing you might want to do is make a layer just
for points, get on that layer and then do the DIVIDE, this
way you can either set that layer to No Plot or simply shut
it off or freeze it.
