Effects can be added to any Layer and will modify the Layers visual output. Multiple effects can be added to create an Effects Chain, their order in the chain will affect how the final output looks.
Once an effect has been added, it’s parameters can be adjusted by selecting it from the effects chain.
An effect can be removed from the chain by right-clicking it and selecting ‘remove'.
Effects can be reordered within the chain using the up/down arrow buttons.

True Perspective
The True Perspective effect extracts the corrective perspective view from a 360 Layer, while accounting for the geometry of a screen of arbitrary proportions (Cylinder, Immersive Room etc) that it is being displayed on. It can also adjust the perspective for different viewing locations. All in Realtime!
The Igloo Setup application is required for generating the True Perspective calibration files ICE.
