Using the Replicator
To add and animate Sequence behavior parameters:
1
With the Sequence Replicator behavior selected, display the Behaviors tab in the
Inspector.
2
In the Parameter row, do the following:
a
Choose Rotation from the Add Parameter pop-up menu.
b
Choose Opacity from the Add Parameter pop-up menu.
c
Choose Scale from the Add Parameter pop-up menu.
The added parameters appear above the Add and Remove pop-up menus. No
animation occurs until a value is set for the parameters.
Play the project (press the Space bar) to better see the effects of the sequencing.
3
Set Rotation to the largest (or smallest) value you want the cells to rotate in the
animation. In this example, Rotation is set to 160 degrees.
Each element rotates from 0 degrees to 160 degrees over the pattern over the duration
of the Sequence Replicator behavior.
Note: If the elements are already rotated (in the Cell Controls), the elements are rotated
160 degrees from their original rotation value.
Each element rotates and pops into place before the next element begins its
animation. To soften this effect, increase the Spread value.
4
Increase the Spread value. In this example, Spread is set to 12.
