Tutorial 5 The Replicator 219
To change the scale of the objects in a replicator pattern:
m In the Replicator tab of the Inspector, change the Scale End parameter to 50 percent.
Now, the object in the center of the pattern is 100 percent of its original scale, and the
objects at the corners are 50 percent of the original scale. The scale of the objects in
between the center and the corners are scaled between the start and end values.
To more clearly see the basic properties of a pattern, add a multicolored gradient to it,
then change its default Origin.

emphasizes its basic features and design.
To add a gradient to the replicator pattern:
1 In the Replicator tab of the Inspector, choose Over Pattern from the Color Mode pop-up
menu.
