36 <b>Cellular automaton</b> is a set of cells. Each cell can be in one of several possible states. Cell can change its state, according to state of neighbors of the cell. This process is determined by transition rules. <b>Cyclic cellular automaton</b> is a kind of cellular automaton, its set of states is a cycle, and cell changes its state to next one, according to cycle order. It works with <b>2-dimentional cyclic cellular automaton</b> with rectangular field. Transition rules should be defined through number of neighbors of the cell in same state. This program allows user to change number of cell`s states, order of states and transition rules for each state. Other options are automaton step duration, scale of field, colors of cell in defferent states. |

73 Change size window allows user to change size of the field on certain side. Side can be appointed through group of nine buttons. If choosen button side have no neighbor buttons, equal side of field will not be changed. New dimensions of field should be determinated through entry fields (X dimention <b>x</b> Y dimention). |

76 <b>Automaton</b> item opens automaton window. It contains list of states, group of buttons of changing states order in list and change/add state area, that includes tools for changing parameters of state. "Change" button changes choosen state and "Add" button adds new one. Each state should have name, unique symbol, color and unique key. Key is keyboard key, that simplify changing cells state to conformable state. |

83 To set name, key or symbol of state, use entry fields. To set state color, press to the colored area and then choose new color. To set transition rules, use checkboxes. If checkbox with label <b>N</b> is choosen (<b>N</b> = 0, 1, ... 8), then cell in the state will change it, if the cell have <b>N</b> neighbors in same state. |

89 User have ability to change cells states with mouse. Pressing <b>left button</b> of mouse results in changing of cell state to <b>next</b> one. <b>Right button</b> changes state to <b>previous</b> one. If keyboard <b>key</b> is being pressed during motion of mouse with pressed button, cells change their state to that corresponds to the key. |
