The Rain Video filter adds rain drops to the video, as if the video were a pool of water. The property page is shown in the following figure:
The Rain property page provides a user interface for changing the filter's attributes.
Changes will be applied directly to the streaming media with the ability to set them permanently by clicking Apply or OK, or to abandon changes by clicking Cancel.
