Color Control

Solarize

Solarize 1

Color Function parameter DMX value = 13

Solarize 2

Color Function parameter DMX value = 14

Solarize 3

Color Function parameter DMX value = 15

Solarize 4

Color Function parameter DMX value = 16

Each of the Solarize options remaps colors to a narrow value range and inverts the color below a set threshold using different algorithms. Solarize options can create strong highlights.

Red Parameter: Increases red color component from 0 = no adjustment to 65,535 (100%) = maximum red saturation. Red color values below the threshold are converted to cyan.

Green Parameter: Increases blue color component from 0 = no adjustment to 65,535 (100%) = maximum blue saturation. Blue color values below the threshold are converted to magenta.

Blue Parameter: Increases green color component from 0 = no adjustment to 65,535 (100%) = maximum green saturation. Green color values below the threshold are converted to yellow.

Transparent Color

Default DMX Value = 0: Use pre-defined image transparency

The Transparent parameter lets you set a color value from the file as transparent. When you designate a transparency on an Image layer, a layer placed “behind” it will show through the transparent pixels. You can also designate a background color to show through.

The ability to “see” one layer behind another when using transparent color is determined by the current selection in the global Transition Mode parameter. Global Transition Mode determines the relationship of the Image layers to each other and, depending on the type of transition, what will what will be seen through the transparency of the selected Image layer, (see Transitions and Color Transparency on page 55.

Set the Transparent parameter DMX value = 0 for custom files that have a transparent component predefined. A DMX value = 1 sets the black pixels as transparent and a DMX value = 2 makes white components of the image transparent.

You can select any of the LED colors assigned to the image as transparent with DMX values from 3-254. Use the Echo application to view the palette of LED color assignments for a media file (see Viewing Content on page 79).
