(Later on, you can also develop and add effects to this effect library.)
- Edit effects
After you add the effect to your movie, you also can change its parameters later to
implement different animation effects.
- Add multiple effects
Glanda supports adding multiple effects to one object. There are two ways to play the effects: playing the effect under the order you defined or letting multiple effects show blended/combined.
Motion Path
Motion pathMotion path is also an effect Glanda 2004 offers. You can also combine the motion paths with other animated effects. See Stack effect.
Currently, it has the Oval, Curve, Line and Scribble drawing tool to help you draw the path freely.
Stack Effect
The most unique and magic feature Sothink Glanda 2004 provides is that you can create new effect, completely different from the built-in effects, by using the Effect Stacking technology. With a few carefully chosen and configured effects you are able to achieve lots of very unique and stylish effects.
For example, all three movies below just use the built-in effects named Hastily stop 2 and Popple, and a curve motion path, but have different results.ffects without stacking (Effects played one after another.)
