    I think I have just about got it using the blend with spacing set to specified distance.
    Here is a screen shot of the outline view and normal view:

    A couple of problems that could be fixed:
    1. The handles on the points influence how the objects blend together. It would be good if you had the option for the blend to be totally even without being influenced by the handles.
    2. When you introduce new points to the spline (or replace the spline altogether) the blend object acts very unpredictably. I think this happens because the objects are locked to a point on the spline rather than being able to move freely along the spline. I think this is probably related in a way to the first problem.

    • Right, I see what you’re getting at. Nice work.Zenith_Kudos
