            <label>This extension drops copies of a pattern object along one or more paths without deforming it. The pattern object must be a single path or a group of paths, shapes or clones. It must be the topmost object in the selection. All other selected objects must be paths. You can also put a set of different objects (alternating or randomly) on the path, if you select the option for picking group members.</label>
