The Temo plug-in gives the user the possibility to create an image animation sequence, using a method much like the one used for making a cartoon film. The basic input for the plug-in is a single image consisting of many tiled and equally sized squares set up in a matrix.

Each square of the image is made up to be a snapshot of an animation sequence, just like each picture frame is on a normal film. The image must be made up in advance with the aid of a image editing tool. In the property editor, you tell the Temo plug-in how many tiled squares there are in the X- and the Y-axis. The plug-in is then able to show the tiles of the image one by one. By animating this, a “film like” sequence is created. The plug-in has only a small influence on the rendering performance.
