Method

Specify the entity you want to measure and enter a block distance value or insert a block. On the entity the points are places at equally-spaced specified distance.

Note: Points are usually invisible, so use the PDMODE system variable to make them larger.

Options within the command

Insert block
Inserts a block instead of a point. You can specify the name of the block or use ? to list available blocks.
? to list
Allows you to use wildcards (* and ?) to display a filtered list of available block names.
* for all
Lists the names of all available blocks in the drawing.
Yes-align blocks
Rotates blocks for them to match the local orientation of the entity, such as along an arc.
No-do not align
The blocks maintain their orientation (they do not rotate).
