Pro features are only available with a Professional licence. To upgrade, visit cavalry.scenegroup.co.
Intro
Reorder a Layer's pixels by sorting them according to various attributes such as brightness.
This effect is computationally heavy and so may slow down a Composition, particularly on older hardware.
UI
Direction - Set the sorting direction to vertical or horizontal.
Detail - Increase/decrease the detail sampled from the image. A higher value will generate a 'noisier' result.
Threshold - Set the threshold within which pixels are sampled.
Reverse Sort - Invert the order pixels are sorted to.
Masks - Add Shapes to isolate the effect.
Note that any Shapes added as Masks will be automatically switched into Wireframe mode. This can be restored by right clicking on a Shape in the Scene Window and unchecking the Wireframe option or the attribute is also accessible via the Advanced tab in the Attribute Editor.
