S_WipePointalizeTransitions between two input clips by adding brush-like polygon shapes from one clip onto another in a semi-random order. The Wipe Amount parameter should be animated to control the transition speed. Adjust the Frequency to change the size of the shapes, and adjust the Edge Width and Chunky parameters for different patterns.In the Sapphire Transitions effects submenu.

Wipe Amount:
Default:
0,
Range:
-0.5 to 1.5.
Determines the transition ratio between the From and To inputs, and would normally be animated from 0 to 1 to perform a complete transition. The curve controlling this parameter can be adjusted for more detailed control over the timing of the wipe.
-
Edge Width:
Default:
2,
Range:
0.05 or greater.
The width of the transition area.
-
Angle:
Default:
0,
Range:
any.
The angle of the wipe direction in degrees. Use 0 for a wipe from left to right, 90 or -90 for a vertical wipe, 180 for a wipe from right to left.
-
Frequency:
Default:
20,
Range:
5 or greater.
Increase for smaller and more polygon shapes, decrease for fewer and larger.
-
Chunky:
Default:
0,
Range:
0 or greater.
Increase to cause the shapes to be added with a more clustered ordering.
-
Stroke Length:
Default:
0,
Range:
any.
Determines the length of the brush stroke shapes. A zero value gives regular polygon shapes. Increase for longer more random shapes. Negative values cause the strokes to orient in the other direction. Note that when this parameter is non-zero, the stroke shapes will also vary over time as if being re-painted.
-
Stroke Align:
Default:
0.5,
Range:
0 or greater.
Increase to smooth out the directions of the strokes so nearby strokes are more parallel.
-
Seed:
Default:
0.23,
Range:
0 or greater.
Used to initialize the random number generator. The actual seed value is not significant, but different seeds give different results and the same value should give a repeatable result.
-
Show Wipe:
Check-box, Default:
on.
Turns on or off the screen user interface for adjusting the Wipe Amount parameter.
