Chapter 15 Replicator 561
You can add additional cells to the replicator by dragging another source layer from the Layers
list into the Replicator layer, as shown in the image below.
When you drag an additional source layer over the Replicator layer (while continuing to hold
down the mouse button), a drop menu appears. This menu gives you options to add the object
as a replicator cell or as a mask to the replicator. For more information, see
Use masks with
replicators on page 609.
The replicator and its cell (or cells) have separate sets of parameters that control the look of the
mosaic pattern you see in the Canvas. Changing the replicator parameters modifies the overall
onscreen pattern, allowing you to create rectangular, circular, spiral, and other geometric layouts.
Changing the cell parameters affects each element in the onscreen pattern, allowing you to
modify attributes such as the angle, color, and scale of the pattern pieces.
