Method
|
Set the type of array that is constructed; different
tool settings are available depending on how this is set.
- Rectangular —
Construct a Rectangular array
- Polar — Construct a
Polar (circular) array
- Along Path —
Construct an array along a path element
|
Active Angle
|
(Rectangular array type) Aligns the imaginary
orthogonal grid on which the copies are placed.
|
Rows
|
(Rectangular array type) The number of rows.
|
Columns
|
(Rectangular array type) The number of columns.
|
Row Spacing
|
(Rectangular array type) The space between rows.
Row spacing is measured from the lower left corner
of a linear element or the center of a circle or ellipse.
|
Column Spacing
|
(Rectangular array type) The space between columns.
Column spacing is measured from the lower left corner of a linear
element or the center of a circle or ellipse.
|
Copies
|
(Polar array type) Sets the number of copies of the
element in the array.
(Along Path array type) Sets the number of copies of the element
in the array.
|
Delta Angle
|
(Polar array type) Sets the angle between copies of
the element.
- If positive, copies
are placed counterclockwise.
- If negative, copies
are placed clockwise.
|
Total Angle
|
(Polar array type) Sets the total angle along which the copies
are arranged.
- If positive, copies
are placed counterclockwise.
- If negative, copies
are placed clockwise.
|
Rotate Items
|
(Polar array type) If on, the element(s) are
rotated about the center of the array.
(Along Path array type) If on, the element(s) are
rotated to maintain their relative orientation to the path element.
|
Mode
|
(Along Path array type) Sets the way that the array
is created.
- Number — Defines
the number of items in the array, via the Copies setting.
- Distance — Defines
the distance between items in the array, via the Distance setting.
- Both — Defines the
number of items in the array and the distance between each item, via the Copies
and Distance settings respectively.
|
Distance
|
(Along Path array type) Sets the distance between
items in the array.
|
Use Fence
|
If on, the fence contents are copied into an array.
The option menu sets the Fence (Selection) Mode.
