Special Effects 195
Using a Duet effect attribute
The Duet effect creates one or more clones of a shape and combines the clones with the original
to create a single complex shape. You can define the number of clones to create and determine
whether the clones are to be rotated or reflected from the original shape. You can also define the
center point around which the clones are rotated or reflected.
