LEAD Video EFX Rain Filter User Interface

The Video EFX Rain Filter adds rain drops to the video, as if the video were a pool of water. The property page is shown in the figure below:

The Video EFX Rain Filter 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 selecting Apply or OK, or to abandon changes by selecting Cancel. Positioning the mouse pointer over a control displays general information for that control. The following table shows the controls and their descriptions:
