The {{Button|[[Image:Draft_PathLinkArray.svg|16px]] [[Draft_PathLinkArray|Draft PathLinkArray]]}} tool places copies of a selected shape along a selected path, which can be a [[Draft Wire|Draft Wire]], a [[Draft BSpline|Draft BSpline]], and similar edges. It works the same as {{Button|[[Image:Draft_PathArray.svg|16px]] [[Draft_PathArray|PathArray]]}} but creates internal [[App_Link|App Link]] objects instead of simple copies.
The [[Image:Draft_PathLinkArray.svg|24px]] '''Draft PathLinkArray''' command creates a [[App_Link|Link]] array from a selected object by placing copies along a path. Use the [[Draft_PathArray|Draft PathArray]] command to create a less efficient regular array instead. Except for the type of array that is created, [[App_Link|Link]] array or regular array, this command is identical to the [[Draft_PathArray|Draft PathArray]] command. See there for more information.

Description

The Draft PathLinkArray command creates a Link array from a selected object by placing copies along a path. Use the Draft PathArray command to create a less efficient regular array instead. Except for the type of array that is created, Link array or regular array, this command is identical to the Draft PathArray command. See there for more information.
