: Adding different graphics to a circle path without distortion? Is there a way to do this without it changing the shape of the graphics? I just used the method suggested on this post and it

@Jessie844

Two simple ways, depending on how many things you need to place.

Step one for both is using the above linked questions to get circles in place. Then it's a case of swapping the circles for your objects.

If there's only a few of them, and/or they're already the right size:

Use the Align window (after hitting 'show options' on the flyout menu) like this:


Bring all the circles to the front so they're all in front of the graphics you want to replace them with
Select a circle and one of your shapes (if it has lots of parts, make sure it is grouped)
Set the Align window "Align to" option to "Key object"
Hit the "Align horizontal centre" and "Align vertical centre" buttons
Delete/hide the circle, and repeat


If there are loads of them, and/or you also need auto sizing:

Try the Copy to multiple objects script.
