Remarks
This property affects the behavior of each effect differently, but its intention is to modify the properties of the effect such that a strength of 0.0 will have no visual change from the original visualization, and 1.0 will have full effect. Any value assigned to this property will be clamped to the range [0.0, 1.0].
As this is an inherited property for all effects, one can iterate over effects in an application and modify the strength for each effect instead of writing code for each specific effect in order to tweak how strong the effect would be. The Strength value is then used as a weight to interpolate between start and end values. How the interpolation affects each effect is described in the following table:
Effect name | Interpolation effect |
|---|---|
BrightnessContrastEffect.Brightness: From 1.0 to original. | |
HueSaturationEffect.Hue: From 0.0 to original. | |
GammaEffect.Gamma: From 1.0 to original. | |
HaloEffect.Color alpha: From 0.0 to original. | |
GlowEffect.BlurredIntensity: From 0.0 to original. | |
Shadow alpha: From 0.0 to 1.0. | |
Occlusion factor: From 0.0 to 1.0. |
