Hi, I'm totally noob with this software, and trying to create a circular pattern of an object (cell) around an axis with n repeats. This is a standard thing in Autodesk Inventor, but I can't find a way to create such a thing here. Any ideas? Thanks, Yonatan.

Please use the *cellarray* feature (mainmenu/draw/cellarray) and choose as type *circle*: ![Screenshot_20220509_141135.png](/api/img.php?thread=20220509-4a58&file=Screenshot20220509141135.png) For a placement you used in your example *rotated* needs to be marked as well.

WOW! That's great but I don't have that option. My version is Release 20211015. Is there a new one? I have institutional license, do you have any idea how can I update it (I'll ask the admin)? Thank you very very much.

That feature was added with the last update (LayoutEditor Release 20220423). You can download it here: https://layouteditor.com/download Please also check whether your license is valid for this update under help/register_license. The included maintenance date must be after the release date. The maintenance can be extended if required in our online shop.
