| A '''Spiral''' effect creates the look of a spiral of lights twisting around the tree.
| |
| | |
| | |
| '''The Options to customize the Spiral Effect:'''
| |
| *Rotate Clockwise: change rotation direction.
| |
| *Speed of Rotation: How fast should the spirals rotate (lower numbers mean faster).
| |
| *Number of Bars: The number of bars to spiral. Each additional bar will add a new color (max 6). Additional bars after that will repeat the color additions.
| |
| *Width of Bars: How wide the bars should be.
| |
| *Spiral Spacing: How much space should there be between each spiral.
| |
| *Sparkle: Add random sparkling pixels to the effect.
