Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about our Image Reflection Effect tool.
How does the water ripple animation work?
The ripple displacement operates on a custom mathematical pixel-displacement algorithm inside an active HTML5 Canvas loop. When animation is enabled, it cycles the sine-wave phase to simulate realistic moving water.
Can I download the reflection image with a transparent background?
Yes. Simply set the 'Backdrop Type' to 'Transparent', and the background backing the reflection will remain fully transparent. The final image will be downloaded as a high-quality PNG.
