578 18. Modifiers
Play your effect and you can watch as Layer 2 automatically chases Layer 1
around on the slide.
This example works because Layer 2 is using modifiers to automatically get
its values from Layer 1 and since those values are offset just slightly by
changing the multiplier to 1.3, you can see it move and reflect that offset. If
you were to leave the multiplier at 1, it would exactly match Layer 1 and
you wouldn’t see it.
If you want to expand on this example, try changing the Zoom value for
Layer 2 to 60%, and leave the multiplier for both modifiers at 1. You will be
able to see it as it exactly follows the motion path of Layer 1 – no keyframes
necessary.
In our next example we’ll see how modifiers can enhance effects by
creating effects that are timed to movement.
