search for Plugin to copy once and serial-paste function?
hello friends,
I'm searching for a helpful Plugin/or Function in SU 8 to take ohne objekt/Line or what ever, to paste/put in a exactly
number of a serial in a line or circle or what ever.
For example:
I'm building different cabinets/furniture on SU, so I have to distribute/copy-paste allways Doors/Sides/shelves
in e spezific space/high oder deepnes.
I draw the objects / groups / component and would like to distribute them at regular intervals, for example in line, rectangle or circle
or what ever in just a few clicks.I think this need is not only my?
Thanks very match for a info/plugin or idea.

You can already do this in a line using the existing Move-Tool +Ctrl for 'copy', pick or type offset, and then immediately type x6 to make six copies at the spacing of the first or /6 to make six copies fitting within the over all distance you picked.
Similarly for a radial array use Rotate+Ctrl and a picked or typed angle with x6 to repeat six copies each with that angle or /6 to fit six copies within that over all angle...
There are tools like Component-Stringer that will distribute copies along paths etc if you want more complex alignments or scaling as you go for example...
