Great! Except the breathing effect...

The new options for layer / container placement are a godsend! But I was playing around with it just now and I think there's something wrong with the breathing effect:

When I turn it on, the picture completely disappears. I tried messing around with the "Power" value and when I crank it up really high -- say, to around 0.05 -- I can see the top of my picture (in my current instance, it's the very top / head of a character bust) flickering at the bottom border of the screen. I have no idea what in the world is going on there, but I have a Visustella plugin that has the exact same feature and it works fine, so I guess that's a work-around for me, if I actually need that feature... Although it can only apply that effect to it's own generate pictures, and not the ones generated by your plugin.

Hi there!

Can you share with me the plugin commands(screenshots) you used to show that picture and apply the breath effect to it? So I can reproduce the problem and try to fix it! If you tell me the size of the image you used, will also help! ^^

I played with it for a few minutes this morning and figured it out: When using the "Show Full Picture" command, the Main Settings have an option to choose the Origin / Anchor point for the image, and I think I started out using "Center." Using the default "UpperLeft" will display the image correctly, but it seems that the Breath effect does not acknowledge the image offsets that are caused by the other choices; As soon as the effect is applied, the image will snap back to the position that corresponds to using the default "UpperLeft" anchor point. The floating and shaking effects don't have that issue, just the breathing effect.

Hmm!! Rhanks for that info! Will play with it to see what I can do here to fix this!
