- Mograph - 3D Layer: Apply this to any 3D layer. When applied this layer will react to the Effector.
- Mograph - 2D Layer: Apply this to any 2D layer. When applied this layer will react to the Effector.
- Mograph - Color Property: Apply this to and Color Property of any layer. When the Effector gets close to that layer, its color will change automatically!
- Mograph - Special Property 1: This can be applied to any property that has a numeric value. For example apply this to a Fast Blur "Amount" Property, and the blur will increase or decrease depending on the Effector Layer's Proximity.
- Mograph - Special property 2: Same as the above! You can have 2 special properties.
