3 In the Replicator tab of the Inspector, do the following:
a Select Circle from the Shape pop-up menu.
b Select Outline from the Arrangement pop-up menu.
The cells appear in a circle. By default, the circle shape contains five points, and its
Radius is set to 200. An element appears at every point on the circle.
c If necessary, adjust the Radius parameter so that elements are not cut off in the
Canvas. In this example, Radius is set to 145.
d Increase the Points value until the elements overlap. An element is created at every
point on the shape. In this example, Points is set to 30.
e In the Cell Controls group, turn on Align Angle.
Based on the location of the anchor point of the source layer, the replicator elements
automatically rotate to match the curve of the circle.
