XY Coords (tool)

 

What's this?

This effect was a bonus in the bottom list of my pack of plugins without its post till now. It’s originally a tool I made to find out how a picture is distorted/transformed by over effects (useful with Shape 3D).

This plugin can effectively assist the Color Modulo effect.

 

The effect adds on the canvas regularly spaced X,Y couple of counters. 

 

 

Download it!

Plugin XYCoords.dll

 Here is the DLL http://jcljay.free.fr/pdn/XYCoords.zip 

 

The MadJik's All plugins package is available!

Use this to move the text inside the “virtual grid”
