This component is obsolete and its use in filters is not recommended. Use the recent version of the component.
The Offset component shifts the source image horizontally or/and vertically by a specified distance. Since both horizontal and vertical offsets can be defined by map components including those that output HDR colors, Offset can be used for a wide range of effects and image manipulations, such as distortions, zooming, stretch, rotation and much more. This is a map component, it can be located in the Transform category on the Components Bar. This component can output HDR colors.
Source: Map Input (HDR), Required
Provides the source image. This is a required input – in order to make Offset work, this input must be connected. This input can accept HDR colors.
Offset X and Offset Y: Map Inputs (HDR)
These inputs define the absolute amount of horizontal or/and vertical shift. The amount of offset depends upon the Percentage and the XY Anchor parameters. Since Offset X and Offset Y are map inputs, their values can be controlled separately for different image areas by connecting a map component. In this case, the output brightness of the map component defines the offset amount: areas with negative HDR color correspond to negative (leftward or upward) offset, black areas correspond to no offset, and areas with positive colors correspond to positive (rightward or downward) offset. This input can accept HDR colors.
Percentage: Map Input
Serves as a multiplier to both Offset X and Offset Y. This parameter is useful for adjusting the 'strength' of the effect produced by Offset without having to modify Offset X and Offset Y separately. When Percentage is set to 0, Offset X and Offset Y have no effect. Since Percentage is a map input, its value can be controlled separately for different image areas by connecting a map component to this input.
Determines how the coordinate values supplied by Offset X and Offset Y inputs are interpreted. For more information, see How XY Anchor Works.
