Adjusting Shape Feathering Using the Point Modes
Each shape you create with a RotoShape node actually consists of two overlapping sets
of points. The main shape points define the filled region of the shape itself, and a
second set of edge points allows you to create a custom feathered edge. Since the
shape edge and feathered edges are defined with two separate sets of points, you can
create a feathered edge with a completely different shape.
The following table describes the four point modes that allow you to adjust the shape
and feathered edges either together or independently of one another.
To create a soft edge around a shape:
1 Click the Edge Points button.
2 Select one or more points around the edge of the shape.
