Array Object

An object contains a collection of elements arranged in a specific order, where each element can be accessed using a numerical index.

Parameter

Local Rotation

Decimal

Rotation applied around the axis of each source copy in the X, Y, and Z directions

Local Offset

Decimal

Offset applied around the axis of each source copy in the X, Y, and Z directions

Local Scale

Decimal

Scale applied around the axis of each source copy in the X, Y, and Z directions

Count

Decimal

The number of source copies being created

Decompose Shape

Convert the current array into a hierarchy of its components
