DISTRIBUTE ALONG CIRCLE

Anonymous
Not applicable
Not had to do this before, so may be basic question.
Tried all the things I could think of but so far no go.

What I want to do is array/distribute square objects (in this case columns) along the circle path to the divisions I have set up, in this case 12, (although they don't show in this screen capture).
I also want them to maintain the orientation to the center of circle.
Is this possible without having to set each one individually?
thanks

You can do it with objects in AC13, but not columns, yet.

But, it isn't so bad using the divisions trick.

Set divisions to 12 to get gravity nodes - placing is fairly quick.

Duh - read it wrong.

Just use multiply, rotate.

See this for details.

But you only need 11 copies, not 12.
