duplicate in circle

[clankill3r]

I have a object which i want to rotate in a circle.
I picked a object reference for the rotating.

If i press ctrl d then it rotates without adjusting the angle.

How can i do it like i want?

I can think of a couple of ways. Move center to where you want to pivot around. Duplicate in place (ctrl-shift-d). Then linearly interpolate the rotation; think you type something like l(0,360) (that's an L). Forget the exact syntax.

Another option: try duplicate multiple, under edit.

ICE: something like x= cos(angle)*radius; y=sin(angle)*radius Add in an origin variable to move it to desired location.
Build linear interpolated array (0-360)

it's often simpler to animate your object and use "dupplicate from animation"

ICE Tree of what you mean ?

sounds interisting. I will try later.
