Not able to view the "Array creation" tab for the Path Array modify button

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I have to use certain properties of "Array Creation" tab such as 'Base point', 'Measure' of Path Array modify button.

I am not able to view this tab under "Path Array" button. In a video I saw this tab just beside "Featured Apps" tab.

Please give me the settings to view this "Array Creation" tab.

Thanks,
Vijay

Hi,

>> Please give me the settings to view this "Array Creation" tab. <<

as seen below image .... if that what you want to display, after you create your array select it ( without any command ) to find that a new ribbon tab appear ( red rectangle ).

Hi Imad,
I cannot see the "Array" tab which you have shown. In the list of tabs this Array is not there. Other tabs like BIM 360, Performance are there.

The "base point" property I could do through by shift + right click and then go to the mid point as object snap.

But how to ensure equal spacing between the objects of Path Array? Which should by done by using the "Measure" property?

Thanks,
Vijay

Forget the buttons and just use the keyboard. When you start the array command all the options your looking for are on the command line

1st - create an array

2nd - pick on the array and the ribbon will switch to the contextual tab you are looking for.

After trying that let us know if you still don't see it.  If not we can guide you through settings in the CUI for that.

Hi,

glad that you find a way to accomplish your work ... but i'm still curious to know why it's NOT display yet ?  any way you can also try to use ARRAYCLASSIC command and use that old dialog if you remember .  🙂

Hi Imad,

What was not displayed was the "Array" tab. If it's displayed on the ribbon , then all is commands such Divide, Measure can be seen as sub commands. That's my intention. Sorry if I am not able to communicate. Just I wanted to see the "Array" command as a tab similar to Home, Insert, Annotate, Parametric etc. Tabs which usually display on the ribbon.

Thanks,
