Please add option to allow user to select window corner to use for open and close effects (i.e. for Pixel-Wipe effect).

Hey there! Thanks for the feedback. Just to ensure that I understood you correctly: Currently, the Pixel-Wipe effect uses the mouse pointer as origin for the effect. You want an option to change this behavior to start from a given window corner instead?

That's actually unfortunate because while for opened windows mouse pointer relative effects could work for many, closing is worse example, because mouse pointer relativity bites back once you close using window's close button and not keyboard shortcut. Said close button is always in the same position so i.e. I am unable to make my windows "burn" from bottom or so. That's why it'd be great to either be able to manually specify the corner

or set to use mouse pointer's coords for opening/closing independently.

Alright! I think that I won't have the time to work on this anytime soon, but it's a good idea. I think we should add an "Effect Origin" drop-down to the settings which allows selecting the eight corners you've shown above, as well as "Mouse Pointer", and "Random". This can then also be used for the Incinerate effect.
