Instancing Rotation on a Sphere

Beginners
1

Hi folks,

a question, I am trying to instance a box sop, long on the Y, using a polygon sphere as the surface, how can I get the rotation of each instance? What I am trying to achieve is essentially what the sphere looks like when I have the normal display turned on in the viewer.

Thank you!

Is this the effect you are looking for?

In that case, example attached. You can set the rotate to vector on the Instance 2 page of your Geo COMP, that’s quite handy.
