Fig. 2.16.1 Before Array (Processing Interface) 

The default offset is the size covered by the picture element, i.e. height and width of single graphics; adjust 

these two values to make the array more reasonable. 

Press the number keys to enter the parameter value, press [Y+], [Y-] to select a parameter, enter the valid 

parameter, and then press [OK] to select array direction.
