You know what? Forget about modifying individual tiles. Users

can modify individual pieces after rendering.

Here's the general concept for dynamics:

1. (Double?-)Click on any other tile besides the base tile.

2. Modify the angle, size etc. of that tile by dragging its transform

handles. Move the tile for shifting. The corresponding values of

3. Use Ctrl- drag handles to constrain to row values.

Shift- drag to constrain to column values.

For radial tiling, they'd be constrained to angular and radial values.

4. Alt-drag the same handles to add jitter: drag right to add, 

drag-left to remove.

So now the only dynamics still needed in the toolbar are

trace + Blur, Opacity, Hue, Saturation and Lightness.

BOHSL will appear as tools, a bit like tweak tools. Just drag

over any frame with it after selecting it with double-click.

(same as last mail:)

The "result" will be "visible" thanks to that little sphere in the

corner.

And hopefully we're a step closer to stuffing a 7-tabbed dialogue

into one toolbar!

Jasper: I only saw your reply after I finished this current one. 

I'll remove the unclump button (besides, fuse tile renders 1 object,

and I think the normal tiling can be made to render just a normal

group of objects, so you can just ungroup).

I can also consider your "gradient" approach. Basically render

frame will come with two reference tiles which will be connected

to the base tile with a line (to look a bit like a gradient line).

You can move it to another tile, but they will still be constrained

to row/column. So, you modify these two tiles specifically.

This would save up the use of a few modifiers. I think I'll put up 

a mock-up for each and ask again which one people prefer.

The interface will likely be more complicated for P3 transformation

and such. Then again, I never did understand how "rows and

columns" worked for those. : (
