Apple Motion 2 - Manual (Page 632)

632 Chapter 9 Using the Replicator
• In the Canvas, the replicator bounding box appears, which can be transformed using
the onscreen controls.
• In the Canvas, the default rectangle pattern appears, in the same location as the
source object. The pattern’s elements are created from the replicator cell.
• In the Toolbar, the Adjust Item tool is selected so that you can immediately begin
using the replicator’s onscreen controls.
When the Adjust Item tool is selected, dragging the pattern’s outline resizes the
replicator. Dragging in the Canvas (not over the outline) repositions the replicator
object as a whole.
• The Replicator Dashboard is displayed.
Note: If you have hidden the Dashboard, press D.
By default, the patterns created by the replicator are not animated.
