Tiling
Effect Mode parameter DMX value = 48
Tiling varies the number of times a media file is applied as a texture to an object. This effect
works best on objects that have an undisrupted surface area.
Modifier 1: Adjusts the size and number of tiles along the x axis. A value of 128 (50%) =
no adjustment. Values below the midpoint size a single image to 0 = maximum image
magnification. Values above the midpoint increase number of images displayed to 255 (100%)
= maximum.
Modifier 2: Adjusts the size and number of tiles along the x axis. A value of 128 (50%) = no
adjustment. Values below the midpoint size a single image to 0 = maximum image magni-
fication. Values above the midpoint increase number of images displayed to 255 (100%) =
maximum.
Modifier 3: Not Used
NOTE: The Tiling effect implemented on Effect 1 overrides tiling on Effect 2.
