Plug-ins included
Tools included in the plug-in set are as follows. All are used in the same way. Select the items and then drag the cursor to the required range / distance and release, paths etc are generated based on the start and end distance. 
1] "Rows and columns tool" Create a grid of selected paths based on the selected paths + checkerboard and pattern designs as well as different scaling of paths and much more. Flash SWF examples The plug-in now also includes an additional lock feature based around the golden rectangle.
2] "Drag tool": Create a zoom / multiple copies of the selected path (s) or images or symbols or symbols text Flash SWF examples
3] "Soft center tool": A variant of drag tool working on the selection of multiple paths and a singular center
4] "Frame tool": Create a frame based on selected paths. Many variant frame designs. The frame plug-in comes with color options, pattern features, layering, rotation settings, path jitter, trace features and many more to create stunning frame designs. Flash SWF examples
5] "Rim random tool": Paint tool / brush creator, grain and noise and backgrounds. Plug-in re-sizes and randomizes the positions of the selected paths to create localized jumbles of paths (or symbols or images). Flash SWF examples
6] "Circular / windmill tool": Rotation and circular effects on selected paths and symbols and images. The plug-in comes with many features such as matching cursor angle, color options, patterns features, repeat applies, different apply methods, different layering of path settings and many more Flash SWF examples Plug-in also now includes additional gap features to create even more wow designs in seconds.
7] "Scaledown tool": Use to scale a selected path and repeat 
settings for twists and turns + blur effects and much more. Select a path or paths or symbols or images and reduce or increase the size of duplicated elements. Use different apply modes, color settings, patterns and much more to create 1000s of different designs. Flash SWF examples
8] "Bounce along tool": Repeats and bounces and pulse effects
9] "Spiral tool": Spirals created out of selected paths.
10] "Checkerboard tool ": A variant of the duplication tool but misses alternate paths
11] "Paint tool": Select a path and paint in a variety of ways, great with the pattern / tile feature
12] "Tile tool": Create basic patterns in seconds and define a pattern swatch
13] "Background tool": Creates a background based on drag size or frame
+ bonus "Points toolbox" plug-in : Manipulate points of a path in 1000s of ways. The points plug-in works on the path's anchor points and direction points and stretches the path based on the movement of the mouse / pen and many different type of point combinations. The plug-in is packed with many different options to randomize values, interpolate points, create abstract designs via trace, layer / animation and much more. Flash SWF examples 
1) Pattern / tiling: The plugins can be set into different pattern / tile modes such as tile the generated paths about the document center, start cursor position, end cursor position and original path position. The plugin set can be used to create a near infinite range of truly stunning pattern designs and tiles and these in turn can be saved / defined as a pattern for use in Illustrator
2) Trail / trace: The plugins all generally apply their effect by creating and deleting the paths instantaneously. The trail feature removes the 'deletion' part and leaves the paths as a spray across the trail of the cursor. This can be used for stunning painted effects as well as backgrounds as well as stunning animations (the trail can be generated across layers as well and saved as SWF format files and other formats
3) Pressure: The plugin can also use pressure so if you have an artpad and pen, extra functionality can be explored.
4) Fill settings: The plugin set comes with many different fill settings such as taking the current color and generating additional paths to the white / black / swatches / inverted color and more; alternating color paths such as color white color white and color black color black etc; as well as randomized colors and randomized selection from the swatches and darken / lighten settings. The plugin set can be used to create truly stunning color designs, combined with tiles / pressure / opacity / transformations, wow designs
5) Stroke settings: As well as applying the color changes to fills, the path's stroke can also be manipulated as well, all the same color settings can be applied and this can be used to create truly beautiful abstract color designs, grid designs and more
6) Different paths: The plugins can be used with a single path or with many different paths or the plugins can be used with images such as placed images (photos etc) or with symbols from the symbol palette or gradients or mesh objects in CS2 CS1 and 10; and in 10, you can also use the plugin with text
7) Multiple plugins: Multiple plugins are included in this set, so you can simply expand out the set and select the paint plugin or use the background plugin. The plugins also can be used in combination so select a path and apply the drag plugin and then expand out to the windmill plugin and use that set of paths to create amazing circular designs (and combine this with patterns and so on), a creative toolkit
8) Options: Each plugin in the set comes with its own local plugin settings such as create / scale etc but the plugins also come with a set of global settings such as the fill / stroke / stroke width / etc
9) Modifiers: All the plugins come with modifiers so as you use the plugins, simply hold down the shift key or ctrl / command key or the space etc bar and you can modify or stop the plugin, move the cursor and continue in different positions on the document. Flexible toolset

Only works with paths but it has 1000s of great option combinations to distort and warp and control path points to reshape paths and designs. The plug-in can be used to create many unique and stunning path designs
Multitool tutorial 1: blurring vector shapes
1) Select the path
2) Select the multitool (found in the toolbox of Illustrator ®)
3) Select the sub-plugin 'scaledown'
4) Double click the plugin icon to display options
5) Select the 'to white' color option, set the scaling to 101%

8) Set the copies to 30 or more
9) Drag in the desired direction (can be in any direction or basically no change of position)
10) Release the mouse to create the 30+ 'blurred' dynamic vector paths
Multitool
tutorial 2: diagonal landscape
1) Create a path (such as a circle)
2) Create multiple paths in different locations throughout the document
3) Re-color the paths via the fill palette / swatches
4) Select all the paths

11) Set the pattern mode to 'use original path'. The pattern tiling will be based on the original / start path position for each path.
12) Drag diagonally (you can drag in different directions to generate a different angle of path tiling
