Hi everyone, I wanted to know if it was possible to repeat a shape that is distributed in 3D space on a circumference, uppore on a square or corner holder (see image) through the After Effect "Repeater" property. In Apple Motion it is possible to do it, even in simplicity, in AE i can't do it, who has a method or advice? (if it can be done).

Thanks to who will answer me.

No. any such trickery requires actual duplicated layers and laying them out manually, with scripts or expressions.

I understand, in replicators and particles Apple Motion beats AE hands down.

* in this case i used a simple line for distribution on a circle in 3D space.
