Wavy Screen
This filter reduces an image to a high-contrast grayscale version of itself. It then screens
it using a pattern of angled lines, simulating a sort of etched screening technique. The
image is represented by varying thicknesses in the pattern of the zigzagging lines.
This filter causes rasterization in 3D groups.
Parameters in the Inspector
Amplitude: Sets the amplitude of the waves. Values range from 0 to 100.
Wavelength: Sets the wavelength. Values range from 0 to 500.
Scale: Sets the scale of the waves. Values range from 1 to 100.
Contrast: Sets the contrast of the screen. Values range from 0 to 0.99.
HUD Controls
The HUD contains the Amplitude, Scale, Wavelength, and Contrast controls.
Tiling Filters
Tiling filters don’t create a simple repetition of objects in a rectangular grid. Tiles can be
created using many different shapes and be arranged into many new and exciting
mosaics.
Kaleidoscope
This filter simulates the effect of looking at an image through a kaleidoscope. It is not
automatically animated, but by animating the Offset Angle parameter you can simulate
the effect of twisting the kaleidoscope’s knob to rotate the image pattern.
