Sharing and Unsharing Parameters and Modifiers

Sharing parameters

Here we have two different layers and we want to share the scale parameter:

We can connect these two parameters using the Quad menu by clicking on:

• Copy Share Group (you can also use the ctrl/cmd + c keys after selecting the parameter)
• Paste Share Group

It doesn't matter which of the two parameters is selected first because they are being shared mutually.

Unsharing parameters

To unshare a parameter, simply open up the Quad menu again and select Unshare:

Sharing Modifiers or Modifier groups

In the previous example, we shared a numerical value. But as mentioned in the previous section, absolutely anything can be shared in Autograph.

Here is an example of how to share a Modifier group:

• Select the Modifiers line representing the Modifier Group.
• Press ctrl/cmd + c to Copy
• Select the second layer
• Use the Action menu to Paste (Shared) > Paste Modify Group

Now both layers share the same Modifiers.

Sharing while adding Modifiers or Generators

If multiple layers are selected when adding a Modifier, you will be asked if you want to share them or not.
