Chapter 9

Using the Replicator

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.

In addition to creating a more graceful animation, changing the Spread value can also
dramatically change the appearance of the pattern.

5

Set Opacity to the lowest value you want the elements to become in the animation. In
this example, Opacity is set to 0.
