Double-click a control label to reset it. Use its function button to add keyframes or a driver.

Control	What it does	Default	Range	Nudge	Animation
Amount	Strength of the sharpening pass.	1	0 to 1	0.01	Continuous keyframes

Expr G	Expr G setting for this effect.	mix(0.5, sin(sqrt((x-0.5)^2 + (y-0.5)^2) * scale * 52 - phase * tau + 2.094395) * 0.5 + 0.5, amount)	Panel-defined	Continuous	Panel-dependent

Mode	Operation mode for the selected effect family.	procedural	Panel-defined	Continuous	Panel-dependent
Phase	Loopable animation phase for the carrier; animate 0 to 1 for a clean sweep.	0	0 to 1	0.01	Continuous, overflow allowed
Preset	Preset setting for this effect.	radialRings	Panel-defined	Continuous	Panel-dependent
