I'm relatively new to QGIS, I have past experience with ArcGIS.
I am trying to place 9 equally spaced points along a line, including one at each vertex. The points represent posts along a trellis wire in an orchard.
I have tried both the answers in this post…
Creating specific amount of points along line in QGIS
-
First I used "Points along geometry"; changing the 'Distance' to
$length/9
-
Next I used Geometry By Expression with the following code…
with_variable (
'no',
9,
collect_geometries (
array_foreach (
generate_series (0,@no-1,1),
line_interpolate_point(
$geometry,
length($geometry) / @no * @element
))))
My results are that 9 points are placed on each line, with a point on one vertex. However, I would like 9 points equally placed on each line with a point on both vertices.

Try this geometry by expression. It will place 9 points along the line length. For some reason I had to subtract 0.0001 or some lines didnt get the end point.
