Tutorial 5 The Replicator 221
Now you can more clearly examine how the pattern is built.
To change the replicator so that the objects in the pattern are all unique, change the
Build Style to Row.
Origin and Build Style
The replicator takes a source object and builds a pattern with it. With the Origin set to
Upper Left, a rectangular pattern is “built” starting in the upper-left corner and
moving out toward the lower-right corner of the Canvas.
The color of the objects steps from green at its upper-left corner to green again at
the lower-right corner, following the Rainbow gradient from left to right. The scale of
the objects changes at the same rate, in this example, from 100 percent in the upper-
right corner to 50 percent in the lower-right corner, based on the values set in the
Scale and Scale End parameters.
