Shape Glow (Grayscale)

In: Filters/Effects

Intermediate

Description

Creates a soft glow around an input mask (for the grayscale version) or a shape with an alpha channel (for the color version). Compared to Glow, this works in ways more similar to other 2D image editing software, as it is a more complete effect with more controls.

    Controls how far the glow reaches.
  • Spread: 0.0 - 1.0
    Cut-off / treshold for the blurring effect, makes the glow appear solid close to the shape.
  • Opacity: 0.0 - 1.0
    Blending Opacity for the glow effect.
  • (Shadow) Color: (Color value)
    Color tint to be applied to the glow.
