The Heartbeat plug-in creates a heart beat animation. Includes animation of:

• Size, along different axes, axis-pairs or all axes

• Rotation, around three main axes

• Alpha

• Color

Heartbeat Properties

• Animation Length: Sets the length of the animation. Parameter Name: animLength.

• Swing: Enables the object to have a swinging action (back and forth). Parameter Name: swing.

• Pause: Enables the object to pause before repeating the action. Parameter Name: pause.

  • Pause Length: Sets the length of the pause. Parameter Name: pauseLength.

• Change Size: Enables the change size parameters for changing the vector(s), initial and final weight of the object’s animation. Parameter Name: changeSize.

  • X, Y, Z, XY, XZ, YZ, XYZ: Sets animation vector(s). Parameter Name: changeVector.

  • Initial Weight: Sets the initial weight of the object. The higher the value, the slower the animation at first. Parameter Name: initialWeight.

  • Final Weight: Sets the final weight of the object. See also Initial Weight. Parameter Name: finalWeight.

• Change Rotation: Enables the rotation parameters changing the rotation axes, initial and final angles. Parameter Name: changeRotation.

  • X, Y, Z: Rotates the object on the X, Y or Z axis. Parameter Name: rotAxes.

  • Initial Angle: Sets the initial angle of the object. Parameter Name: initialAngle.

  • Final Angle: Sets the final angle of the object. Parameter Name: finalAngle.

• Change Alpha: Enables the alpha parameters changing the initial and final alpha values. Parameter Name: changeAlpha.

  • Initial Alpha: Sets the initial alpha value. Parameter Name: initialAlpha.

  • Final Alpha: Sets the final alpha value. Parameter Name: finalAlpha.

• Change Color: Enables the color parameters changing the color of the object. Parameter Name: changeColor.

  • Source Color: Sets the source color. Parameter Name: sourceColor.

  • Target Color: Sets the target color. Parameter Name: targetColor.
