¶ Image Filters
PolypopLive offers an easy way to enhance the visual appeal of your scene through the use of image filters. By connecting your Twitch or YouTube alerts to these filters, you can create an interactive experience for your audience. Imagine allowing your viewers to control the image filters by making a donation, for example. This can add an exciting element to your live stream by temporarily altering the look of your scene, giving you a unique topic to discuss and react to.
When working with an image filter in a scene, it is important to note that the filter will affect all layers beneath the filter layer in that scene. However, if you wish to selectively apply an image filter to a specific source without affecting other layers, you can do so in the Crop and Filter mode. For more information on this, please refer to the Crop and Filter Mode article for guidance.
