Effect
Color Hue rotates the art's own colors. Backlit keeps the art fixed and cycles a color backlight through it (Linear Light), with the same Loop time and Tint intensity sliders as Spectral Mode on the Spectral Art Foundation site - plus Glow, which sets how hard the lamp fuses into the art and is the right way to calm the white stop without darkening the picture. Portal simulates a real Portal Frame: instead of tinting the art it MULTIPLIES it by a narrowband lamp, so pigment that lacks the lamp's colour goes dark and disappears - a red triangle, a green circle and a blue square each vanish and return as the cycle turns. It only works on artwork authored for it: split your image into red, green and blue channels, and if those look like three DIFFERENT pictures it will reveal, while a photo or any muted palette just dims. Layers are irrelevant - a flat MS Paint drawing in saturated primaries separates perfectly. Spectral purity is the only strength control, and Ink floor keeps dropped shapes receding into darkness rather than slamming to true black, which no real frame does. S226: a real frame is an addressable LED matrix lit per-inch, not one giant lamp - so Lamp pattern gives the light a shape (sweep, ripple, pulse, spiral, random cells), Pattern spread sets how many hue turns it covers across the piece, and LED pitch quantises it into discrete lamps. Set pitch to your real frame's LED count across (up to 300) and the preview matches the wall; leave it at smooth for an idealised infinite-resolution frame. S226b:Weave, Marble, Plasma and Turbulence are woven fields rather than per-lamp noise - neighbouring lamps stay close in phase, so coherent colour shapes form and drift across the piece instead of scattering. Pattern detail sets how dense those shapes are, and the woven patterns quantise to LED pitch too, so a coarse pitch looks like a real matrix running a pattern. Both renders Color Hue and Backlit together into one side-by-side file.
