17.268. ábra - „Fuzzy Border” options

Color

  Clicking on this button brings up the color selector dialog that allows you to choose the border color.

Border size

  Here you can set the thickness of the fuzzy border, in pixels. Maximum is 300 pixels, regardless of the image width or height.

Blur border

  If checked, the border will be blurred. The example below shows the effect of blurring:

  „Blur border” unchecked

  17.270. ábra - „Blur border” zoomed (1600%)

  „Blur border” checked

  „Blur border” unchecked

Granularity

  The border's granularity is almost the size of pixel blocks spread to create the effect of a jagged and fuzzy border.

  17.271. ábra - Granularity example (without blurring)

  Granularity 1 (min)

  Granularity 4 (default)

  Granularity 16 (max)

Add shadow

  If checked, the filter will also create a shadow at the border.

  17.272. ábra - „Add shadow” example

  „Add shadow” checked, shadow weight 100% (default shadow weight).

  „Add shadow” with shadow weight 10%.

  „Add shadow” unchecked (default)

Shadow weight

  If Add shadow is checked, you may set the shadow opacity here. Defaults to 100% (full opacity).

Work on copy

  If checked, the filter creates a new window containing a copy of the image with the filter applied. The original image remains unchanged.

Flatten image

  If unchecked, the filter keeps the additional layers it used to create the border and the shadow (if demanded). Default is to merge down all layers.
