Hey all, I am trying to figure out how to distribute a set of obects linearly along a given curve. I am sure there is an easy way to do this I just dont know what it is. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks

attaching to motion path and setting the position to a division of the arcLen (curve info node) can be usefull, and very simple...

couldn't you do the motion path, but just divide by time?
