Queston for Fred06 concerning BezierSpline tools
-
Part of the toolset includes "Convert to Polyline Divider" which presents a dialog box asking the user for an Interval Length.
Could there be option for "Number of Intervals" which would divide the selected curve into equal intervals of the number specified?

This is possible, but remember that there is always an issue with the last segment, which cannot be made equal to the others mathematically, unless you changed the End point.
Also, if your original curve is a Bezier or Spline curve, there are other ways to 'simplify' the curve, by playing with their Precision parameter.
Attached is a small script BZ__Segmentor.rb, which draws a polyline with a given number of segments. Just drop if in the BZ_DIR folder. I do not provide an icon for it, but the menus should be fine.

Thank you, Fred06.
This will help me out when I have to place reference points at equi-distances along a path or simplifying existing curves.
