HUD Controls
The HUD contains the Skew, Scale, Stretch, and Angle controls.

Triangle Tile

Tiles your object with triangular shaped panels. The effect is similar to one of the
kaleidoscope filters. It is not automatically animated, but by animating the Angle
parameter you can simulate the effect of twisting the kaleidoscope to rotate the image
pattern.

This filter causes rasterization in 3D groups.

Parameters in the Inspector

Center: Sets the origin of the tile.

Angle: Sets the angle of rotation of the triangles.

Tile Size: Sets the size of the triangles. Values range from 1 to 200.

HUD Controls
The HUD contains the Angle and Tile Size controls.

Time Filters

Where other filters manipulate objects in two or three dimensions, Time filters
manipulate objects in the fourth dimension—time. These filters are most often used
with moving footage.

Echo

Echoes an object’s motion by repeating frames. The result is that moving areas of an
image leave a streaking trail behind as they move.

This filter causes rasterization in 3D groups.
