This effect applies a boxblur on the selected image, whereby a pixel’s color is blurred by averaging the current pixel’s color with that of its neighboring pixels. The size of the neighborhood (the kernel) is defined by the strength parameter. The height and width parameter should be equal to the resolution of the image. If they are not the image will be blurrier.
Parameters

Tiling
This effect shows the image multiple times on the screen in a tiled pattern. The scale of the image is decreased, and the now empty regions of the screen are filled with copies of the image in the same dimensions. Similar to zooming out. The effect uses the bottom left corner as center, if another center is needed it is advised to use ‘Zoom’.
Parameters
| Mix[%] | Defines the visibility of the effect. |
| Factor | Defines the scale of one tile and thereby the number of tiles on the screen. |
TriGradient
Creates a color gradient between three colors over the image. The transitions between the colors (edges) can be further specified.
Parameters
| Mix[%] | Defines the visibility of the effect. |
| Position1[%] | Defines the position of the left edge. |
| Position2[%] | Defines the position of the right edge. |
| Width[%] | Defines the size of the edges and thereby the smoothness of the transitions between the colors. |
| Strength[%] | Defines the opacity of the colors. |
| Angle | Defines the orientation of the edges. |
| Color 1 Red | Increases the red value on the left side of the image. |
| Color 1 Green | Increases the green value on the left side of the image. |
| Color 1 Blue | Increases the blue value on the left side of the image. |
| Color 1 Alpha | Modifies the transparency on the left side of the image. |
| Color 2 Red | Increases the red value in the section between the two edges. |
| Color 2 Green | Increases the green value in the section between the two edges. |
| Color 2 Blue | Increases the blue value in the section between the two edges. |
| Color 2 Alpha | Modifies the transparency of the image in-between the two edges. |
| Color 3 Red | Increases the red value on the right side of the image. |
| Color 3 Green | Increases the green value on the right side of the image. |
| Color 3 Blue | Increases the blue value on the right side of the image. |
| Color 3 Alpha | Modifies the transparency on the right side of the image. |
TriNoise
A layer of black triangular shapes is put on top of the image. If the ‘time’ parameter is used the triangles will move over the screen and are faded in and out following a fixed pattern creating noise.
Parameters
| time | The time interval during which the triangles are faded in and out is defined by placing two keypoints on the time-timeline. The speed of the animation depends on the distance between the keypoints and the difference between their values. |
| amount | Defines the number of triangles that are laid over the image and thereby also their size. |
| Mix[%] | The lower the value, the less transparent are the triangles. Increases the visibility of the triangles from the screen borders to the center. |
Vignette
Classic vignette effect. Darkens the image from the screen borders to the center.
Parameters
| Mix[%] | Defines the visibility of the effect. |
| Width[%] | Defines how far from the screen borders the darkened area reaches. |
Zoom
Can be used to zoom in and out of content. Zooming out works similar to ‘Tiling’, with the difference that ‘Tiling’ uses the bottom left corner as the effects center point, whereby here the center can be chosen freely.
Parameters
| Mix[%] |
Defines the visibility of the effect. |
| xPosition |
Defines the x-coordinate of the effects center point. |
| yPosition |
Defines the y-coordinate of the effects center point. |
| Scale[%] |
Defines the zooming factor. Values >1.00 will zoom in, values <1.00 will zoom out. |
