Description:

There isn't a modifier to arrange instances in a neat circle. You can do it with the Array modifier, but it's more difficult than it needs to be. So I made a geometry node tool to make it easy.

Both Node Groups in this file are marked as assets, so if you have an asset library set up, you can just drop it in your asset library directory. Otherwise, you can manually import the object you want from this file.

Radial Array rotates each iteration, relative to the center of the circle. If you want them all facing the same way, use Radial Array Unaligned. The pictures explain it better.

Take the object you want to duplicate, and add a GeoNodes modifier, and select Radial Array. Make sure to apply transforms. The object's origin will be the exact center of the circle.

You can change the radius of the circle, and the number of instances from the modifier itself. There's a roll control if you want to change the angle.
