FlysEyeRect In the S_FlysEye Plugin. Breaks the image into rectangle shaped tiles and transforms the image within each shape, to create a fly's eye view effect. The 'Inside' parameters transform the Source image before it is tiled into the pattern, and the 'Tile' parameters transform the entire fly's eye pattern. Inputs: Source:  The clip to be processed.

Parameters:

Tile Frequency:   Default: 12,  Range: 0.1 or greater,  Shared.
The frequency of the tile pattern, increase for more smaller tiles. This parameter can be adjusted using the Tile Freq Widget.

Tile Rel Height:   Default: 1,  Range: 0.01 or greater,  Shared.
The relative height of the tile shapes, increase for taller tiles.

Tile Shift:   X & Y,   Default: [0 0],  Range: any,  Shared.
Translates the tile pattern. This parameter can be adjusted using the Tile Shift Widget.

Inside Zdist:   Default: 2,  Range: 0 or greater,  Shared.
Determines the zoom factor of the image inside each tile. Values greater than 1 zoom out, values less than 1 zoom in. If this is 1, Inside Rotate is 0, and Overall Zdist is 1, the result should be the same as the input image.

Inside Rotate:   Default: 0,  Range: any,  Shared.
The rotation angle of the image inside each tile, in degrees.

Overall Zdist:   Default: 1,  Range: any,  Shared.
Creates an overall zooming effect by making each tile look toward or away from the image center. Decrease to zoom in, increase to zoom out. When 0 all tiles should contain identical images.

Wrap:   Popup menu,  Default: REFLECT.
Determines the method for accessing outside the borders of the source image.

NO:  gives black beyond the borders.

TILE:  repeats a copy of the image.

REFLECT:  repeats a mirrored copy. Edges are often less visible with this method.

Filter:   Check-box,  Default: on,  Shared.
If enabled, the Source image is resampled using pixel averaging. This removes aliasing and gives a higher quality result especially when Inside Zdist is large. It may not be necessary if your input image is smooth or Inside Zdist is small.
