ING Modifiers Summary

Question

My 2 cents on ING Modifier

KN 1) IN cause and effect 'ING modifiers', Subject of the previous clause needs not to be modified by the modifier. It can but even if it doesn't then it will work.
KN 2) 'ING' modifer without cause and effect relationship needs someone who is performing 'modifier's action', so it will modify the previous clause's subject. Sometimes, the subject of the previous clause may not be the DOER but its fine, ING Modifier can modify DOER, BUT when DOER is not in the previous clause then it creates ambiguity - avoid ING construction.(Sacred Truce example)

Please provide me KUDOS if it helps.

Experts, Please correct me if I am wrong.

Thanks !
