SpeedLines

Functional Overview

Part Names and Basic Shape

The basic shape of SpeedLines is very simple. It is formed by the Start Point (SP) and End Point (EP) that determine the direction, as well as the Density of Lines and Length of the speed lines which run parallel to the direction.

Basic Randomization

Randomization functionality required for the appearance of speed lines, such as line length and thickness, or line spacing, is available.
Periodic re-randomization and the number of randomization patterns for these random states can be set.

Line Grouping

Groups can be created for the lines forming the speed lines.
Basic grouping is controlled by the number of lines assembled in one group (Group Lines) and how strongly they are pulled together (Attraction). By using various randomization parameters, the attraction within each group, the distance between groups, etc., can be randomized.

Tapering

Tapering assigns a pseudo-vanishing point to the speed lines.
This feature allows you to create speed lines that seem to have a vanishing point far off the screen, which is difficult to adjust with FocusLines.

Offset Animation and Repetition

The offset of the direction connecting SP and EP can be animated.
You can also repeat speed line groups, and re-randomize for each repetition.

Line Shape

The shape of line tapering can be adjusted.
