How do I generate a "heartbeat" effect on a tiled background ?

Hi everyone :D

I am only working with construct for about 3 weeks now and I am sorry if this question was answerd already elsewhere (didn't find it). Still hard time expressing my questions in a way so i find an answer xD (no native english...)

anyway...

I am making an educational game inside a human body about digestion and i would like my insides to pulsate like a heartbeat. Is there a way to do that easily?

I tried sine behavior, warp object effect and pulse effect and they all look pretty cool, but not like a heart beat.

Does someone have a better idea?

aaand it might be that I don't got the setting correct for any of the solutions i tried. There are quite a lot of parameters to regulate and maybe i just could get them right?

You mean something like this?

YEEEES! That is exactly what I was looking for!

Thank you very much! I can see how you did it, that's great!

Thanks again! :D

No worries!

You can apply Bulge effect to a sprite or any other object.
