Melt settings
The Melt effect melts the image away from a specified part.
To apply the Melt effect
With the Melt menu displayed, use the following procedure.
1
In the <Direction> group, select the direction in which the image melts
away.
Up: Melting occurs upward.
Down: Melting occurs downward.
2
To make transition settings, press [Transition] and set the following
parameters.
3
To make wave settings for melting part, press [Border] and set the
following parameters.
a) Set when Lock is on.
b) Set when Lock is off.
To stop the waves in the melting part
Press [Lock], turning it on.
With each press, the waves alternately stop and start moving again.
To select the shape of the part beginning to melt
Press [Form] and set the following parameters.
a) 1 (SINE): Sine wave
2 (PARABOLA): Parabola wave
