830 Chapter 9 Using the Replicator
 Through: Specifies that the sequence goes through a full animation cycle starting at
the original value of the cells, moves to the value set in the Sequence Replicator, and
then returns to the original value of the cells. For example, if the original opacity
value of a pattern cell is 100%, and opacity is set to 0% in the Sequence Replicator
parameters, the elements begin completely opaque, become transparent, and then
become completely opaque again.
 Through Inverted: Specifies that the sequence goes through an inverted animation
cycle starting from the value set in the Sequence Replicator, moves to the original
value of the cells, and then returns to the value set in the Sequence Replicator. For
example, if the original opacity value of a pattern cell is 100%, and opacity is set to
0% in the Sequence Replicator parameters, the elements begin completely
transparent, become opaque, and then become completely transparent. This is the
opposite of the Through Sequencing option.
 Custom: Allows you to use animation originally created in the source layer’s
parameters (except alpha parameters) or to keyframe how the animation moves
through the values set in the Sequence Replicator parameters over an individual
element. Each element undergoes the same value sequence. When Custom is chosen
from the Sequencing pop-up menu, the Source parameter becomes available.
 Source: This option is available when Custom is chosen from the Sequencing pop-
up menu. The Source options are:
 Use Source Animation: If the source layer parameters are keyframed (in the
Replicator tab or HUD), choose this option to enable the animation created by
those keyframes.
 Ignore Source Animation: If the source layer parameters are keyframed (in the
Replicator tab or HUD), choose this option to ignore the animation created by
those keyframes.
Unit Size: Specifies whether the sequence animation is applied to the replicator
pattern as a whole, to its individual elements, or to a keyframed range. The Unit Size
options are:
Source parameter becomes available
when Sequencing is set to Custom.
