Circular Repeat in Zone on Disc

When I want to create a circular area pattern on a disk, the function asks me for a direction

on a shape with a straight edge = OK but on a circular edge!!

I specify that I use SW2012

Do you have a solution?

 

Thank you

Possible solution: Draw a construction line in your previous sketch that will serve as the direction for this function.

Hello

Create a construction line for your management. Either in a new sketch or in your previous sketch.

Kind regards

Hello

 

Or alternatively, do a repetition driven by a sketch (with dots)

Hello

@ petitpied

my teacher hit me on the head when I did a repetition with dots... He told me that when you're all alone it's good but as soon as a friend takes back it's poop

If anyone has an explanation I'm interested

 TO SEPM. Gerald ,

 

I don't know why your mecha teacher was telling you that. For my part, I sometimes use this technique, and it has never been a problem for the people who have passed behind me.

I think that as long as it's done "cleanly" there is no problem. The sketch just has to be well done.

After thinking about it, opt for Tomalam's solution instead, I had totally forgotten about this function, and it's much simpler in your case...
