You can increase or decrease the number of cells in a group array by modifying the number of rows or columns. You can use the Property Editor assistant, Edit Group Array Properties form, or the Stretch command.

   The Edit Group Array Properties form appears.
3. On the Attribute tab, in the Rows field, specify the number of cell rows you want in the group array.
4. In the Columns field, specify the number of cell columns you want in the group array.
   
   
5. To preview the group array, click the Open Array Pattern editor button , which is next to the Array Pattern field.
   In the following image, the Preview section in the Array Pattern form shows a sample 5x5 group array, with the updated number of rows and columns.
