Continuous Line+arc sketch, curved-linear pattern

ek_aek_a Member Posts: 4

Hey there.

I've got a sketch of two circles and two tangent lines.

Then I've got a piece (the blue one) that I want to repeat x times, following the exterior path that the circles+lines create. As the sketch is made up of different shapes and lines, I cannot make the blue piece to follow the exterior path,

I believe that a solution would be using the linear pattern tool with the piece for every line, right?

I found this guy with the same problem, but still no solution:

(btw, I am quite new to this, so sorry if I seem stupid)
