The ArrayCrv command copies objects spaced along a curve.
Command-line options
When the object to be arrayed is not on the curve and should be moved to the curve prior to the array, the Basepoint option establishes a reference location that will be move to the curve.
The number of items array along the curve.
The distance between items. The number of items is determined by the length of the curve.
Think about an airplane. An airplane may Roll, Pitch, or Yaw when it flies in the air. The orientation styles control how the object rolls, pitches, or yaws when it arrays along a curve.
