It will first have a mirrored copy and then a smoothed surface. Always
consider the order in which you will use modifiers to change the surface
of an object. In any case, you can change the order of the modifiers by
clicking and dragging each modifier from the list. Use the small dots on
the top right corner of each modifier.
4.4 Array modifier
If you have a shape formed by smaller objects organized in a matrix
style, you can use an Array modifier to create such a model. With the
Array, we can get any object copied in multiple axes.
For instance, if we use the form shown in Figure 4.19 and apply an Array
Modifier. You get several copies of that shape repeated side by side.
Figure 4.19 - Shape with Array
To use an Array for modeling, select the object first, and add the
modifier. Once you have the Array modifier assigned, change the
settings to start making copies of the object (Figure 4.20).
