Columns: A slider that defines the number of vertical columns in the pattern. Pattern elements
are distributed at points along the columns. This parameter is available when the selected

is also available for Box and Sphere when Arrangement is set to Outline.

available when the selected shape is closed, such as Rectangle, Circle, or Image, and when
Arrangement is set to Tile Fill. It is also available for Box and Sphere when Arrangement is set

Origin: A pop-up menu used to specify how elements traverse across the pattern from a point
of origin. For example, when you use a Rectangle shape and Origin is set to Left, the elements
sweep across the rectangle from left to right. When set to Upper Right, the elements build
from the upper-right corner point of the shape to the lower-right corner. This parameter is
available when the Arrangement is set to Tile Fill or Random Fill.
