Additional Notes: |
|
Chinese (traditional) ..... 有著波浪紋或狀似漣漪的圖案。「疊紋效果」(moiré effect)一詞則是指創造出波浪流動幻象的雲彩紋。 |
Dutch ..... Te gebruiken voor patronen die een waterachtig of gerimpeld uiterlijk hebben. Gebruik 'moiré-effect' wanneer de illusie van beweging wordt gewekt. |
Spanish ..... Úsese para motivos que tienen un aspecto ondeado o aguado. Donde esto produce una ilusión de movimiento, use "efecto moiré." |
