    Status: Open => Answered

Jan Stránský proposed the following answer:
Hello,
yes, it is possible, something like

######################################################################
from yade import pack

def createAgglomerate(pos=Vector3.Zero,ori=Quaternion.Identity,**kw):
   pos = Vector3(pos)
   ori = Quaternion(ori)
   pred = pack.inAlignedBox((-5,-5,-5),(5,5,5))
   # pred could be any shape, see user's manual,
   # section "Constructive Solid Geometry"
   sphs = pack.regularHexa(pred,1,0,**kw)
   for sp in sphs:
  sp.state.pos = pos + ori*sp.state.pos
   return sphs

a1 = createAgglomerate(color=(1,0,0))
a2 = createAgglomerate((15,0,0),Quaternion((1,2,3),4),color=(0,1,0))
a3 = createAgglomerate((10,10,10),Quaternion((3,2,1),1),color=(0,0,1))
# ...
for a in (a1,a2,a3):
   O.bodies.append(a)

> rotating and translating the copied particles.
> I don't know if it is possible or if it is an inteligente manner to do

> Does anybody knows a function that could help me or a better way to do

> Thanks a lot for your help and patience.
