so tiny wish...
Add a function kinda like in the Render Clear Screen "Clear only 1st frame" to the effect list: "Draw only 1st frame". This would allow complex static patterns/textures for presets with very low fps cost. You can already do this with two effect list's and a custom bpm, but then it will draw the effects in the effect list again every X beat. With low fps you can notice this as the preset "stops" for that 1 frame as it draws it again, this is pretty annoying as you watch the preset for a longer time.
I really think this would be useful as you could for example, draw a very smooth & accurate circle with a render clear screen and a 200x200 Alpha blend Dynamic movement :D
Just an idea.

Expect a clean solution for this very soon (custom bpm 2).
Though if you want a circle, you should just use a line scope/dot scope and a movement r=0. That's pixel-perfect and anti-aliased.

Perhaps another wish is to have photoshop style real anti-aliased lines, since AVS does use floating points for coords anyway, why not allow oversampling and stuff?

I like the idea zevensoft suggested. to have a photoshop style real anti-aliased lines will look awesome.

Sounds good UnConeD :)
Uhm yeah, and that circle thing was just an example :p (bad one)

Funny, whenever I download a preset, the site window closes down. Dont know why. Nice presets though.

Why don't write a photoshop (or other prog) embedded object renderer for this? :D

Another bonus is, since we're only rendering lines, it can be optimized to either 3 vertical pixels or 3 horizontal pixels per point(instead of 1 pixel per point aliased).

heck, why not just create a tiny little APE that IS photoshop!!
