Apple Motion 4 - Manual (Page 736)

To add and animate parameters in the Sequence Replicator behavior
1 With the Sequence Replicator behavior selected in the Layers tab, 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 you set a value for the parameters.
Play the project (press the Space bar) to see the effects of the sequencing adjustments
as they begin to take effect in the next steps.
3 Set Rotation to the largest (or smallest) value you want the cells to spin in the animation.
In this example, Rotation is set to 160 degrees.
Each element rotates from 0 degrees to 160 degrees over the pattern for 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.
