Replicating objects
Duplicating an object means making just one copy at a time. The Replicate
command lets you create multiple copies in a single step, with precise control
over how the copies are arranged, either as a linear series or a grid. You can
include one or more transformations to produce an interesting array of rotated
and/or resized objects. It's great for repeating backgrounds, or for perfectly-
aligned montages of an image or object.
