I have a scalable rectangle with rad. corners. I want to located eight points equally spaced around the parimeter and mantain the equal spacing regardless of the hight/width ratio of the rectangle. What is the best way to accomplish this?
thanks

For now, equations. In the near future, hopefully, it will be much easier.
Thanks for the quick response. Can you point me in the right direction to get started?
I have done something like this using a curve driven pattern. This works for a pattern of features but not for points in a sketch. You might be able to use the idea though. Example file is attached.
Create a fit-spline from the geometry of your filleted rectangle and then create reference points using the 'evenly distribute' option.
As the rectangle dimensions change, the spacing of the points will change.
You can also use the fit spline with a curve-driven pattern.
Good one, John!!!
I'm using equations now. This looks like it may work well for this project, thanks all.
