Stadium seats - Marcin Maćkowiak - 10-12-2015

Hey,

Do you have any idea how to propertly rotate seats on the stadium? Maybe there is an option to rotate around defined "cycled edges" or some option that will force seats to look at the middle of the stadium?

a few screenshots to see what I`m talking about
I hope you understand me

Hi Marcin, you can use Snap [RMB] for that. Wink

You can create the columns for the corner of the "stairs" (as I shown in the picture) and them use Snap again to fill the rows. Or, you can create a column to the center and a second for the corner and after you fill the between columns you can combine them (except the center one), duplicate it and use Flip [MMB] to fill the other half of the "stairs", Or ...

To create the rows you must to use elements of the seats for reference and target.

But, if you also need the seat to be rotated, then I would suggest you to try my Absolute->Rotate plugin.
