Pixel Mapping onto a Circle

Question

Hello 
 I have a circle outline of LED pixel tape consisting of around 400 RGBW pixels which I'd like to build a pixel map for. Short of manually placing each fixture onto the grid, are there any tools within the software I can use here to speed this up? Failing that, can I import grid coordinates for each fixture to build the pixel map using some external software? 
 Thanks 
 Martin

This can be done using the Magic Sheet > Pixel Map conversion tool, which works through Augment3d. 
 Augment3d with Magic Sheets & Pixel Maps 
 
 add a small box to a new magic sheet. I made it 10x10 
 Assign it to Channel 1 
 Change your "mouse mode" to "Quick Increment: 
 Use the Array tool to create a circle with 400 channels. I spaced them 2000 pixel apart, which seems to not create an overlap, but I encourage you to experiment: Selecting all, this shows that these are channels 1 thru 400 
 Open the Augment3d tab 
 Rt-click on its tab options and select "Create Pixel Map from Magic Sheet" 
 Modify the Pixel Map however you might need for Server Channel, Media Channel, etc
