help with pattern point on a spline

All,

I can pattern a point on a spline as a ratio or as a actual length. Works good. But, what I want to do set it up so that when the spline length changes the pattern changes so the number of points at an actual length changes when/if required. I would write a relation but I do not have a dimension that is for the actual length of the spline. I can measure the spline but that doesn't give me anything to use in a relation.

Lost in pattern land.

Thanks

Create an analysis feature to measure the spline length. This will give
you a feature parameter that you can use in a relation.
