 +====== BEYOND Write out Effect Editor ======
  
 +{{:beyond:writeout.png|}}
 +
 +Write out object is based on two main elements. The first is the Image that creates the Write out path. The second is the Path. The path is just a static Frame.
 +The Image section has 3 standard buttons that allows you to choose an Image - Open, Copy, and Paste. The Path section has the same buttons plus button R. Button R reverses the point order of the path.
 +
 +**Parameters**
 +
 +  * Move only - moves the Image by the path and does not display the path.
Write Out - moves the Image, and displays the path.
Write Out + fade - moves the Image, writes out the path, and fades out the path (this mode shown on screenshot)
Don't hide - moves the Image, always shows a path. Duration - duration of the Image motion from the beginning to the ending of path.
 +  * Visible tail - number of points in the path that are completely visible.
 +  * Faded tail - number of points in the path that fade out to zero. 
 +  * Trim unused path points - removes invisible points in the path (tail).
 +  * Smooth motion - uses interpolation between the points for the Image motion.  Otherwise, the Image will jump from point to point.
 +  * Don’t move - the Image stays static, but all actions related to the path works.  Currently BEYOND has various ways of getting same result.
 +
 +**Extras**  
 +
 +Z rotation allows rotation of the Image, depending path direction.
 +
 +Color action allows recoloring of the Image according to the path color, or changes the brightness of the Image depending on the path.
