Replicator Cell HUD controls

The Replicator Cell HUD contains frequently used controls necessary to modify the attributes
of elements in the replicator pattern. These parameters are a subset of the parameters found
in the Cell Controls section of the Replicator Inspector (for replicators with one cell) or in the
Replicator Cell Inspector (for replicators with more than one cell). The Replicator Cell HUD
contains sliders to adjust the Angle, Angle End, Angle Randomness, Scale, Scale End, and Scale of
Randomness parameters. For more information about replicator cell parameters, see

Replicator and cell parameters overview

Replicator and replicator cell parameters, though closely related, serve different purposes.
Replicator parameters control the overall shape, arrangement, offset, stacking order, build order,
and number of elements in the replicator pattern.

Replicator cell parameters control the behavior and appearance of the elements in the
replicator pattern.

For a replicator with only one cell (one source layer), the replicator and replicator cell controls
appear in the same Replicator Inspector. In this case, you can control every aspect of the
replicator using these controls. In replicators with multiple cells, each cell has its own Replicator
Cell Inspector containing all parameters for that cell.
