Using Saved Patterns. The program
comes with a set of pre-saved patterns to give you some interesting images to
start with. The simplest way to get started, is to select one of the "Saved
Patterns" from the list that appears on the tool bar.
Then press the "Run" button and the program will
begin drawing a pattern.
Vary Parameters. Using a saved image
as a starting point, you can vary the the Wheels Sizes,
the RPM of each Wheel and
other parameters that control the shape of the pattern. As you change the
parameters, you can clear the screen to start
the image from scratch as the pattern changes.
Save New Patterns. Finally, if you
find a pattern you like, you can save the pattern to
the list of Saved Patterns so you can recall the image at a later date.
Special Effects. To create even more
interesting images, you can control the line color,
set color gradients, control the
background color or mosaic the spaces between
lines.
