Transformations, Motion Blur, and AutoAlign

After an image is rotated with the Move2D node, the horizontal and vertical panning
controls (arrowheads) lock movement to the new orientation of the image.

Move3D

Similar to the Move2D node, the Move3D node adds three colored dimensional angle
controls to control xAngle (red), yAngle (green), and zAngle (blue) parameters. This lets
you simulate 3D transformations with 2D images.

As with the Move2D node, when an image is panned with the Move3D node, the
horizontal and vertical panning controls lock movement to the new orientation of the
image, instead of the absolute orientation of the Viewer frame.

There are keyboard shortcuts (identical to those used within the MultiPlane node) that
you can use to manipulate images without having to position the pointer directly over
them. For more information, see “

Transforming Individual Layers

” on page 500.

Note: Unlike similar controls available for layers connected to the MultiPlane node, the
constrained pan controls do not move the image forward or back if the yAngle is tilted.
To manipulate images within a more fully featured 3D environment, connect them to a
MultiPlane node, and use the available controls. For more information, see Chapter 18,

Compositing With the MultiPlane Node

,” on page 485.
