    is there any way to interpolate a object along a path in inkscape? Just like this video in illustrator with the stars going along the circle https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=elZne2io8W0

    Hi.

     

    Sort-of.

    There is a scatter extension. However that doesn't allow for live editing in the video.

     

    For a pattern scattered along the path and aligned to it you can use a combination of path effects. 

    The page aligned option is something I haven't tried so not entirely sure if that could work. 

    In general path effects prefer open paths so you may end up double patterns atop eachother at the start-end.
