[V8i] Move to Contact tool not working

It doesn't work for me in SS10 08.11.09.919

2D file example:

The help file states a data point is needed to accept, yet its not asked for:

Thanks for providing the video, this is exactly what it looks like for me when I try it.

Thanks Barry, I need to copy this horizontal stirrup vertically at 6" intervals and keep them following these curved rebar. I was hoping with the "Move to Contact" tool I could just copy them all up at 6" intervals and then snap them over horizontally to follow along the curve (I figured I might have to do it to the circle at the end of the stirrup first, turn off the curved rebar, and then attach the rest of the stirrup to it that way). Is there a better way you can think of that I could quickly accomplish this? Second picture shows the finished product I was trying to achieve and ended up doing manually.

Hi Ryan,

Its unclear if its 6" intervals constantly on the Y-axis or measured along the curve. I've assumed the latter but you'll need to confirm. I've roughly mocked up your situation and would then do this:

1. Select the item to be copied (I have a line with a circle at each end grouped)
2. Activate Array Element with 'Along Path' as the method and set mode to distance.
3. 6" is roughly 150mm so I enter that as my distance.
4. Your items do not appear to be rotating to follow the curve so leave 'Rotate Items' unticked (this has consequences as you will see).
5. I then tentative snape at the end of the line and provide a data point
6. I do the same again but this time on the curve. If you cannot snap to the curve at this point you can snap to line again, left click accept, then right-click cancel (the curve will now highlight), and finally left-click accept. Sounds confusing but is precisely whats needed when an element has no snap point  where needed so you borrow it from an adjacent element which does.
7. Now you will see transient elements of where the copies will go (1 copy and dots at each copy location), move your mouse upwards and left click to accept.

This is the above process demonstrated.

 The issue is that the copies elements retain their size but the length between curves increases. This can be overcome by doing the above process on the circles individually but you need to select the large curve which each circle is in contact with. The line I would make oversized, array as above then use the outer curve to trim. If however your members should actually retain the angle to the curve, enable 'Rotate Items' and no further work should be needed.

Does that help any?
