Creates points that are a specified distance apart along a line, feature line, lot line, or arc.
Specify the start and end stations on the object, distance (interval) between points, and optional offset.
Use a specified interval and offset to place points along an object.
When you create points using this command, you work with one object at a time. After points have been added using a selected object, you can select another object and add points using that object. If the objects you select and the options you specify while using the command would result in the creation of duplicate points, for example, at the shared endpoints of two lines, only a single point is added. Duplicate points are not created.
