 Over Pattern: Elements are tinted based on how they are ordered in the pattern. The
gradient editor defines the range of color of the pattern, beginning with the leftmost
color in the gradient, and progressing through the range of colors until reaching the
rightmost color at the end of the pattern. Gradual color changes do not appear in
each element, but only across the pattern as a whole. An Opacity control is available
at the top of the gradient editor.
 Color Repetitions: Drag the slider to increase the number of times the gradient is
repeated over the pattern.
Note: For more information on using the gradient controls, see “
 Pick From Color Range: Elements are tinted at random, with the range of possible
colors defined by the gradient editor. A point on the gradient is randomly chosen, so
the relative sizes of each color region determine the frequency of the color being
used.
 Take Image Color: Each element’s color is based on the color of the image at the
position of the element point. This mode is only available when an image in used as
the replicator shape.
