Designing a Wreath
In Section 3.10.6, it was shown how to arrange a shape into a circle pattern using the Rotated Duplicates
function. This feature opens up a world of designing possibilities. In this tutorial, we’ll create a wreath using
the following flourish found in the Wingdings font that comes with Windows:
Select the shape and open the Duplicates window by right clicking and selecting Duplicate>Rotated
Duplicates. Enter the number of flourishes you want to use in the wreath and click on the sigma icon. Then
double the Rotated By setting to arrange the duplicates in an equally-space circular pattern:
Enter Dup Count
and click on icon
Enter double the
