Feature request:Path Array from Path Array

Post by herbk »

Dear Path developers,

this parts show several things where path can be made some more handy.

I need to mill out this 3 parts as often as it fits at the cube, which represents the peace of meterial where it's to cut out, also at this case i need to use ramp entry and holding tags. All holes need to go thru all.

For parts like this it would be nice if it would possible to make a Array from an Array. The position of the long holes and the need of holding tags does not allow to place the long holes that a single-stage Array is possible.

A secound thing what would be nice: Path Array should work like each other array, the OP it`s made from, should get a part of the array. Atm. the Op it's made from stays as it's own, if i make a copy of the array to move it to an other place i have to make it with the OP it's made from seperatly.
Gruß Herbert
