Curtain

Overview

Creates an effect that imitates a curtain opening or closing across your display element.

String Setup

• Positioning - Determines how the target elements are treated. Either as individual strings or by their actual location in the display preview. Locations is often referred to as whole house, but it can be any form of multiple props. Generally you want Strings when applying to one prop and Locations if the target is multiple props.

• Orientation - Controls the orientation of the display area (matrix).

Configuration

• Direction - Selects the direction of the movement (Open, Close, Open-Close, Close-Open).

• Motion - Controls how the effect progresses across time between Position or _Iterations.

• Iterations - The number of times the pattern repeats over the duration of the effect.

• Edge - Selects the position where the curtain opens from (Left, Center, Right, Bottom, Middle, Top).

• Swag - Controls the amount of swag on the moving curtain edge. (simulating the inertial curving movement of drapery in motion).

Color

• Color Gradient - The color of the curtain.

Brightness

• Intensity - This is an overall brightness intensity curve for over the duration of the effect. This is a legacy parameter, consider using intensity overlay layers instead.

• Intensity Per Iteration - Adjust the intensity over each iteration.
