Hi Martin,
I really like your proposal, and as I was in the mood for mockups I also made one: http://www.pasteall.org/pic/27910
See http://imagebin.org/202243 for example UI, I figure the simplest addition is to have three options with these presets:
- How do you define the rotation center?
- This could be solved via a drop-down, like for example,
"Rotation center: [Of top object]"
First circular object in selection list.
In my mockup, I decided to let the user choose whether to use the the first selected circular object or to use the average center point of the selected objects
- How do you define where the rotation starts and ends?
Circular object's arc properties.
Should be feasable, also made some examples in the mockup
- How do you position objects in-between? Define angles?
Regular intervals.
Or as an alternative we could simply project the objects onto the circle/ellipse as shown in the middle column in the drawing I made.
If you already have a UI in mind, we'd love to hear it.
It's an interesting addition so I hope Denis doesn't mind my suggestion.
I don't mind at all. If you have any suggestion don't hesitate.
