Applying array modifier to multiple items I want to create a "wheel of fortune" type wheel.



To do this I created a single segment that could be shown multiple times. It consists of a slice, some edge poles and a text.



I then planned on duplicating this using the array modifier. In order to apply an array modifier to all of these things (to have multiple instances), I parented them to an empty.

I then thought I could apply the array modifier to the empty. But this does not seem to be possible. What am I thinking wrong?
Use the following settings for the Array modifier and be sure to add the empty for the Object Offset.  Note that the Modifier should be added to the object that is being duplicated and not the Empty.



Now rotate the Empty
