Is there a way to make a pattern-along-path without
distorting the
original path? Currently, all four options (single, single stretched, repeated and repeated stretched) distort the path
I do not understand your question. Could you provide an example of some kind?
I believe he is referring to the distortion of the objects. If your pattern consists of a square, you will end up with distorted squares that follow the path ( i.e. not straight lines connecting at 90 degrees). I think he wants to know if it will effective "stamp" the pattern along the path either rotating to follow the path direction at that point (or possibly not rotating...)
Is that what you mean Joshua? This is indeed not possible with pattern-along-path. You could file a feature request for such an effect. (please provide mockup of what you'd like)
