Chapter 13:

Effect Mode Options Descriptions

Effects can be applied to the Media File content (texture) mapped onto a 3-D object. Multiple Color and Geometric options are available in Effect Mode parameters for both individual Graphic object and Global control.

Most of the effect options you will find described in this chapter are available for Effects 1 and Effect 2 parameters at both the graphic control level for each Graphic Object as well as the Global control level for the composite image. The following pages describe all the Effect Mode options available along with a description of how each Modifier parameter functions with that mode selected.

whether this mode is available as a Graphic Object Effect, a Global Effect or both.

Because the options for Effect 1 Mode and Effect 2 Mode are identical, you can apply up to two options at the graphic level and another two options at the global level. This lets you choose, for example, whether to apply a color effect option to an individual object or to the composite image at the global level.

After you select a mode using either a Graphic Object Effect Mode or a Global Effect Mode parameter, you can use the three associated Modifier parameters to adjust the effect. The behavior of the Modifier parameters depends upon the selected effect.

For a general information on Graphics Control features, see Graphics Engine Overview on page 35.

For a table of graphic level Effects parameter options, see Effect 1 Mode and Effect 2 Mode on page 80.

For a table of global level Effects parameter options, see Global Effect Mode 1 and Effect Mode 2 on page 88.

NOTE: Both Object and Global Effect parameters include options for swapping colors to provide quick color conversions. Use the following DMX Values in any of the Effect parameters to make these color conversions.
