Select Vignette and drag the Amount slider to any value to enable the adjustment sliders.

Hold and drag the following sliders to draw attention toward the center of your photo:

• Vignette: Make the outer edges of the photo lighter or darker.
• Feather: Lower values reduce softening between the vignette and the vignette’s surrounding pixels. Higher values increase the softening.
• Midpoint: Lower values apply the Amount adjustment to a larger area away from the corners. Higher values restrict the adjustment to an area closer to the corners.
• Roundness: Lower values make the vignette effect more oval. Higher values make the vignette effect more circular.
• Highlights: Lower values reduce highlight contrast preservation when the Amount is negative, while higher values enhance it, ideal for photos with small highlights like candles and lamps.
