This is a package with some hooks for use with Nova Designs ImageFX.

Enjoy!


Noise - v1.0
------------
This hook fills the buffer with random noise. Quite useful for making
bumpy texture maps - just try to run Convolve/Custom/Gaussian on them 
and then maybe a Relief operation.


Light - v1.1 5-Oct-1997
-----------------------
This one will simulate a spotlight. The corners of the image will be
pitch black while the center of the image will be unaffected. The
result is an image that looks like it's being displayed on an old
television screen with round corners..


WinGrab - v1.0 - 3-May-1998
---------------------------
This hook is for grabbing any open window into the main ImageFX buffer. 
You select the window to grab by selecting it via a requester showing 
all the currently open windows.

The selected window will be activated and brought to front so it's 
grabbed in active state.

The current version is a pretty early one and it doesn't like screens 
with more than 256-colours. But it's still quite useful for creating 
screenshots and the like..

Hopefully we will get an official OS solution from Amiga Inc., that
once and for all will clean up in the pretty old and dated
Intuition and graphics.library..

*** WARNING ***
If you select a window that has been closed after the window-list
is created you will get into serious trouble!! (crash!)

I'm not sure if there is a nice and bullet-proof way of fixing
this but if you're careful you'll be fine.

*** NOTE ***
There's a strange bug that sometimes causes the hook to grab nothing
but blackness. I think it only happens when the window is a
'simple refresh' one. Try grabbing the same window again usually
works fine..


DISTRIBUTION
------------
The whole thing is freeware
