Random mass rotate in place

1.i have this diagramm …how i can rotate the trees in place but in a random rotate angle?

without a file, i can only describe a way to do it.

bounding boxes around each tree
create a list of random rotation values, one for each tree
rotate the trees using those values around the centroid of the bounding boxes

Hi,

Try @jaymezd method if you’re unable to achieve it. Next time post your script/ file. That will be more easy to help.

Use list length to count the number of items and a random component with a domain of 0 to 360 to generate a uniqe rotation angle for each tree. Change the seed value until you like the result.
