Dear Fellows,
I have a bunch of collector (about 100) and I need to repeat them linearly. Is it possible that I use the command of copy and select one connector and specify somewhere "the number of copies" so that a handful of my time must save. Regards, |

Currently, you can create a single copy at at time. Writing a script will enable you to create as many copies at once as you'd like. Take a look at https://github.com/pointwise/ArrayCopyRotate

since you only need 100, you can do it quickly by hand:
1) select the one connector 2) Copy (Ctrl-C) and Paste (Ctrl-V) 3) Translate 4) Select the 2 (4, 8, 16, 32) connectors and goto step 2 5) When you have 64 connectors, only select the last 36 6) Copy (Ctrl-C) and Paste (Ctrl-V) 7) Translate This is only 6 copy/paste/translate loops! |
