How Does It Work?
The Distortion parameter, which is linkable only, sets the amount of the distortion as a percent of the
maximum. The value given Scale Factor represents the maximum distortion possible. To define a profile for the distortion, link this parameter to one of the generators. The generator will define the amount of the
distortion from the center out. If you don't link Distortion, the distortion profile will be linear.
Hints!
Because this is a rotation, the distortion will increase as the distance from the origin increases. An
inverted Bias generator linked to the Distortion parameter can counteract this, if you make sure the generator's repeat flag is off.
You can get some especially nice effects using this component. Try linking a Noise or Natural component to the Distortion parameter. Figure1 below shows an example of hooking a Clouds component to the Distortion parameter to get a nebula looking texture.
