Effect Curtain
Opens and closes like theater curtains from a specified edge with optional swag drape.
| Parameter | Type | Range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Curtain Edge | dropdown | left, center, right, bottom, middle, top | Edge or pair of edges the curtain opens/closes from; center and middle split the curtain into two symmetrically-moving halves (default left) |
| Effect | dropdown | open, close, open then close, close then open | Curtain motion; open reveals the model, close covers it, combined modes do both within the effect duration (default open) |
| Swag Width | slider | 0-10 | Width of the decorative draped curve at the curtain edge; higher values create a wider parabolic swag hanging from the top (default 3) |
| Swag Speed | slider | 0.0-10.0 | Speed of the curtain's open/close motion; values above 1 finish before the effect ends, values below 1 slow it down (default 1.0) |
| Repeat | checkbox | true/false | Cycles the curtain motion repeatedly for the effect duration instead of playing once (default false) |
Curtain Edge and Swag Width sliders support value curves.
Use open then close to frame a musical phrase. The Swag Width slider adds a natural drape curve at the curtain edge. Increase Swag Speed above 1 to make the curtain finish its motion before the effect ends, or enable Repeat to loop the open/close cycle throughout the effect.
