It will be very interesting to be able to put the object number in a blend to zero.

Or an alternative could be an hide option for the step objects (perhaps less coding, but then what will happen when converting the blend to editable shapes ?)

That will allow to string objects individually along a stroke and move them exactly at the right place desired on its tangent. At the moment one must allways keep one step objects visible and that's a bit annoying.

kindly,
