Kaleidotile

Simulates looking through a kaleidoscope with rectangular facets. This filter is not automatically
animated, but by animating the Angle parameter you can simulate the effect of twisting the
kaleidoscope to rotate the image pattern.

This filter causes rasterization in 3D groups. For more information on rasterization, see
