    Default Polar Array

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    Hi,

    I am trying to polar array these circles. I need 6 equally spaced through 360 degrees. For some reason the whole array is staying in the same position as shown by the pic. Any idea what's happening?

    Sorry for all the questions

    Thanks

    I'm guessing you should have selected the CENTRE of the larger circle to be the BASE POINT to ARRAY about?

    Looks like an issue with your center point. Try reselecting it (via the button to the right, cursor pointing at the red X) and make sure you locate it at the center of the larger circle you want the smaller circles arrayed around (i.e. use the center OSNAP).
