Linear - The elements in the array follows a linear path
Circular - The elements in the array follows a circular path
Along Shape - The elements in the array follow a spline

| Slot Source | | The source (parent) shape/the object being repeated |
| 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 |
