  • Plugin to duplictae a shape around radial axis

    Posted by Eric Jordan on May 26, 2013 at 10:08 am

    Does anyone know of a useful plugin for Illustrator to take a vector shape and duplicate it multiple times in a radial axis.

    I am basically trying to take a flourish and duplicate it around a center point and then adjust the rotation of the flourish around the axis to create interesting patterns.

    Thanks to anyone who can help.

    Power duplicating
    start with one petal
    with rotate tool option click on point of rotation
    enter a roation value, click copy
    CMD D on mac to power duplicate

    Tranform effect
    Create an object (e.g: star), create a dummy object with filel and stroke of none
    Effect >> Distort & Transform >> Transform
