Sparkles

The Sparkles element creates a cloud of glittering, animated particles that add magic and energy to your scene. Sparkles float, drift, and twinkle automatically, creating an ethereal atmosphere perfect for dreamy visuals, celebrations, or adding visual interest to any composition.

Quick Start

Add from Elements tab > Objects > Sparkles. Adjust count and size to set the density and scale of the effect.

Properties

Color

Sets the color of the sparkle particles. Bright colors like white, gold, or cyan create the most visible sparkle effects.

Count

Controls how many sparkle particles are displayed (0–256). More particles create a denser, more magical effect.

Size

Sets the size of individual sparkle particles (0–32). Larger sparkles are more visible but fewer are needed for a good effect.

Opacity

Controls the transparency of the sparkles (0–1). Partially transparent sparkles create a softer, more ethereal look.

Speed

Controls how fast the sparkles animate and move (0–16). Higher speeds create more energetic, dynamic movement.

Noise

Adds randomness to the sparkle movement pattern (0–16). Higher values create more chaotic, organic motion.

Animation

Rotate Automatically: Enables rotation of the entire sparkle cloud.

Rotation Speed: Controls auto-rotation speed (0.1–1).

Tips & Best Practices

Pro Tip

Sparkles work beautifully behind or around text and logos to add visual interest. For a subtle effect, use low opacity and count with slow speed. For celebrations or drops in your music, increase count and speed dramatically. Layer multiple Sparkles elements with different colors for a multi-colored confetti effect.
