Object collection
Object collection is a layout control, which helps you lay out an array of objects in a predefined three-dimensional shape. It supports various surface styles - plane, cylinder, sphere, and **radial. You can adjust the radius and size of the objects and the space between them. Object collection supports any object from Unity - both 2D and 3D. In the Mixed Reality Toolkit, we have created Unity script and examples that will help you create an object collection.
Object collection examples
Periodic Table of the Elements is a sample app that demonstrates how Object collection works. It uses Object collection to lay out 3D chemical element boxes in different shapes.

3D objects
You can use Object collection to lay out imported 3D objects. The example below shows a plane and a cylinder layout of some 3D chair objects.

2D objects
You can also use 2D images with Object collection. The examples below demonstrate how 2D images can be displayed in a grid.
