I have a couple of handlers that can do that, but would make sure of
having understood well, since the question involves some math and a little
of work on it.
So, you have n items, specifically strings, that you will presumably put into n
sprites type #field or #text.
You want to position these sprites along a circumference, whose radius is known,
so that they are equispaced just like the vertices of a regular polygon inscribed
in the circumference.
Please tell me: is this well formulated?
