How do I divide a bow into 4 equal parts? Imagine that I have to draw a curved scale and I have to divide the bow into 4 equal parts. . .
 
is as if I have to divide a quarter of cake into four other slices...ok I mix the length of the bow and divide for 4 but how do I carry the right size on the curve? !
 
command divide and type the number of segments. for the identification of each segment are inserted points.
 
However it is not only a matter of drawing between two arches, there is also a straight part.. .
I attach the file to make you understand. . .
pila more logical solution seems to me to measure the inner tract, the external one and to divide by the number of steps.. .

If I understand well and you want to divide the bow into 4 segments and that little piece straight, you can break that little piece and join it in the arc with editpl, and then apply dividing.

with this system you could also divide the whole scale by joining all segments.

That's what I was looking for right now!
Thank you very much
