Array Modifier

The Array modifier creates an array of copies of the strokes, with each copy being offset fromthe previous one in any of a number of possible ways.

Useful for creating complex repetitive drawings.

Multiple Array modifiers may be active for an object at the same time(e.g. to create complex three-dimensional constructs).
