Rotating a gear thats abnormal. Looking for a simple technique.
I’m needing to rotate a gear with pads (not a circle). Trying to figure out the best solution of execution. Any ideas?
See image below.

It just needs to rotate. Those bumps need to run along the path of the shape.

You might see if you can manipulate the Vegas effect. It seems like it would get you close…

Another method would be to just animate text along a path. Make your path the stroked shape of the base shape without the “gear” nubs, then choose a typeface which has a squared shaped period character, and stretch that character to the height you need. Then animate the text around the path.

All great options.
Figured out another solution. Ended up just making that shape and using the dash attribute on the stroke. To animate movement, I just keyed up the offset feature within.
Back in business. Thanks for all your suggestions.
