is located where the selected column and row intersect. For this to work properly, you must use different
indexing rules (input factors) for selecting in each rank.
A 3-Rank indexing system extends the 2-Rank model. The third rank is created by repeating the 2-Rank
“set.” Within the selected set, the 1-Rank and 2-Rank indexing (described above) is used. You must use
different indexing rules for selecting in each rank.
A 3-Rank indexing system can be used with calendar dates. Any day — past, present, or future — can be
located by specifying the month, day, and year. For example, “February 25, 1962 (2/25/1962).”
Designing nozzles: 1, 2, or 3 ranks
A nozzle file contains a series of images arranged in a regular grid. Usually, the images are progressive in
terms of size, shape, angle, or color. Progression is not necessary, but it increases the sophistication of the
Image hose. For example, a nozzle file with images progressing in size can be set up so that greater stylus
pressure paints incrementally larger images.
A 1-Rank nozzle progresses in one dimension.
In this example, changing angle is the first rank.
If you want a two-dimensional progression, such as having image elements increasing in size and changing
angle, you need to set up your images as a 2-Rank nozzle file. Painting with a 2-Rank nozzle, you can
control where your image comes from in terms of both progressions. In this case, you use a different input
factor to control the location of the image elements in each rank.
