Transform Orient > On Curve |
The OrientOnCrv command moves or copies and rotates objects along a curve using the curve direction for orientation.
Steps
Command-line options
OnCurve
Pick a base point on the curve. This allows moving the object along the curve while maintaining its orientation to the curve.
Copy
Specifies whether or not the objects are copied. A plus sign 
appears at the cursor when copy mode is on.
The RememberCopyOptions command determines whether the selected option is used as the default.
Flip
Flips the direction of the oriented object on the target curve.
By default, the curve direction is used to orient the object.
Perpendicular
Orients the object perpendicular to the curve. The perpendicular plane is determined by the current construction plane when the base point is picked.
XFlip/YFlip
Reverses the orientation relative to the original orientation to the construction plane
Rotate
Enter an angle or pick two reference points to rotate the object.
SubCrv
Type subcrv to select part of a curve as input.
