## Chromatic Aberration Text Effect

Transform your text into a stunning visual experience with the Chromatic Aberration component. This effect splits text into separate RGB color channels that animate independently, creating that iconic glitch-style look popular in modern web design.

## Features

**Animated RGB Channels**
Watch as the red, green, and blue color channels shift and separate in a smooth, continuous animation. The effect creates depth and visual interest that draws the eye.

**Customizable Animation**
Control the offset distance (how far channels separate) and duration (animation speed) to achieve exactly the look you want—from subtle shifts to dramatic separations.

**Full Typography Control**
Use extended font controls to customize every aspect of your text: family, size, weight, alignment, line height, letter spacing, and more.

**Custom Channel Colors**
Go beyond traditional RGB. Customize each of the three color channels to match your brand or create unique color combinations.

## Use Cases

**Hero Headlines** — Create impactful landing page headlines that immediately grab attention.

**Gaming & Tech Sites** — Perfect for esports, gaming, and technology websites looking for that edgy, digital aesthetic.

**Event Promotions** — Add excitement to music festival, concert, or tech conference promotions.

**Creative Portfolios** — Stand out with eye-catching typography that showcases your design sensibility.

### Quick Tips

**Best Performance** — Keep offset values between 2-10 for smooth, readable text. Higher values create more dramatic but harder-to-read effects.

**Color Harmony** — While RGB is classic, try complementary colors or your brand palette for unique results.

**Background Matters** — Dark backgrounds make the screen blend mode pop. Light backgrounds may require adjusting colors.

**Static Preview** — The canvas shows a static offset preview. Use Preview mode to see the full animation.
