CylinderScreen
The Cylinder Screen animated gobo provides a similar surface to the TV Screen gobo that can also bend around its Y-
axis.
Animation speed (default = 127) controls the amount of the curved surface that is covered by the texture applied to
the layer. Adjusting this control makes it look like the texture is being scaled up and down, however, notice that the
apparent curvature of the texture changes as it fills more of the curved surface.
+ The A modifier (default = 127) controls the radius of the curve of the screen and the direction of the curve.
+ The B modifier (default = 127) controls the rotation of the screen around its own Y-axis (rather than around the
global Y axis of the Mbox 3D environment).
MultiScreen Gobo
The MultiScreen animated gobo is used with the Mbox Pixel Remapping features to allow placement of content onto
a predefined structure that can receive external data (Art-Net) to control both the position and arrangement of the
content on the structure, and also the structure’s position in 2D and 3D space. The MultiScreen gobo is intended for
use with complicated or creative video arrangements that require pixel remapping, or that involve motion (scenic
tracking) during playback. A MultiScreen Editor provides the toolset for creating and editing the MultiScreen.plist file,
which the MultiScreen animated gobo uses as its instruction set. For complete instructions on using the MultiScreen
Gobo, refer to the
"Pixel Remapping" chapter on page 123.
