Description

This filter kaleidoscopes images. This filter will make seamless tiles but it was designed to do distortion effects from images.

I have included presets but type of filter works best by using the Variant button. With this in mind, the filter is optimized to use larger image chunks when the "Variant" button is pushed.

The "Shift All Horizontal" moves the entire pattern vertical; the "Shift All Vertical" moves the entire pattern horizontal. By using these sliders the user can center the final pattern.

One note: If you get to 100% when using the "Shift All Vertical " or "Shift All Horizontal" slider... and need to move some more in that direction, go back to 1% then start moving the slider. The slider will pick up where you left off.
