Curve and repeat an item on a path

Anonymous

Hello,

I'm trying to create a curved stage: I've a straight trellis and I would like to curve it on a path (I've tried with the Sweep item but it doesn't work). How can I do?

Don't sweep along a tube, it doesn't work that way. You use sweep along a single edge (Arc, Polyline, Line....)

If you want it to repeat, use measure command.

You mean like this?

Then you have to draw the trellis with arcs to make it curve.

Chop up your sweep path and draw on it.

No bro, I can't understand that. I don't know how to make a curved trellis. I think that the command measure was working but it create the curved trellis on another part of the draw.

This was perfect. Where can I find it? How can I make the lines a bit more bigger (I used a circle of 0.050) and sweeped all the lines.
