Trail effect block
Updated today
The Trail effect block renders images that follow the cursor or burst from a click point. Set Mode to Trail for a cursor-following trail or Cannon for images that fire when a visitor clicks the page. Its content comes from the nested Trail effect image blocks you add to it.
