Warps an image a ripple emanating from the center of the screen.
Ripple
Method #
This node warps an image with a ripple emanating from the center of the screen.
Parameters
These properties control the core behaviours of the node.
Parameter Details Active
Enables or disables the effect. Disabling the effect means it will no longer compute, so disabling a node when not in use can improve performance.
Blend Amount
Changes the opacity of the new effect over the original image.
Blend Mode (RGB)
Change how the generated effect blends with the parent image RGB.
Blend Mode (Alpha)
Change how the generated effect blends with the parent image alpha.
Affected Channels
Toggle which of the RGBA channels are affected by the effect.
Displacement Amount
How much the warp effect displaces the image.
Falloff Range
How length of the blend to the displacement.
Max Displacement
Maximum height of the ripple.
Ripple Speed
Speed at which the ripple moves.
Ripple Peak Sharpness
How sharp the peaks of the ripples are.
Ripple Scale
How many ripples are generated.
Ripple Repeat Rate
How many seconds between each new ripple.
Inputs
These properties control the core behaviours of the node.
