In this tutorial featuring the free vector graphics software Inkscape, I show you how to create duplicates of an object that perfectly rotate around a circle! This is an amazing feature using a built-in Live Path Effect in Inkscape known as the Rotate Copies LPE. With this effect, you can quickly create evenly distributed copies that rotate around a center point. This beginner-friendly technique should come in handy in a variety of use-cases!

This video was absolutely so helpful!!! I just started learning to use Inkscape, and most of the other videos I have seen use an older version, and it was harder to figure out how to do this because it took several steps that weren't really working the right way. Thanks so much!

Hey, yeah, you WILL see me next time! 😃 This was a great explanation and God's honest, the FIRST time I've ever seen a tutorial where someone's tools look like what I get! It makes such a difference. Those two things add up to a Winner! Thanks

This is not working for me. Grumble. My duplicates do odd things. if I go off to the right far they will eventually rotate in a circle
