Displace

Displace

2D Modifier - Move each pixel in a direction given a distortion map

This modifier displaces pixels based on a different direction for each pixel.
It looks a bit similar to a 2D Transform Change pixels position using translate, scale and rotate parameters with Frame Wrap Modes Read More masked by a Noise mask Mask defined through a Noise Function Read More , but with a 2D Transform Change pixels position using translate, scale and rotate parameters with Frame Wrap Modes Read More each pixel has the same distortion applied to it, which is then modulated by the mask. Here, every pixel chooses its own direction based on the map. See the difference by yourself:

Parameters

  • Displacement Map (2D Generator) : Select the 2D Generator The part of a 2D layer that generates the image Read More used as displacement map
  • Map Type (Displacement Map Type) : Choose between height map (grey-scale map) and normal map
  • Map Scale (2D Size in Floating point number) : Scale of the map
  • Distance (Pixels (positive or negative)) : Distance of the distortion applied to each pixel
  • Rotation (Angle) : Rotate the direction of the distortion applied to each pixel
