JSignage Custom Effects plugin

Introduction

jSignage Custom Effects library is a jSignage plugin used for implementing effects that are not provided "out of the box" by jSignage. The animated playlist widgets included into Elementi are using this plugin. See also how to create new effects with jSignage.

jSignage.CustomEffects.js requires jSignage.js, thus it must be included in the document after that:
