How to Change the Bounce of the Tag
This Tutorial is for Nodekit versions 0.7.3 and above.
Introduction
When you create a new Tag and hit the button your Tag will bounce showing it has been released. Once you release a tag and use buttons 7 or 8 to select Tags - the Tag will bounce to indicate being selected.
Changing the effect
If you want to change the way Tags bounce you can enter new values for the Bounce node. Locate the node within the Nodekit (approx. in the middle of the upper area).
The 3 variables are Duration, Frequency, and Amplitude.
If you change Amplitude (try .99) the bounce will be larger. A smaller number bounces smaller. Valid range is ??? to ??? (must research … 0-.99 ?)
If you change Frequency it will bounce that many times (currently twice). The bounces are still within a certain time so 1 bounce seems slower than 5 bounces. Too high a number will not show the bouncing since it will be 'vibrating' too fast for us to see. Play with single digits and move on.
If you change Duration ….
Have fun - Bounce away.
