Stylize Filters
Unlike distortion filters, which warp and deform an image, filters in the stylize
subcategory make an image appear as if it was created with a different medium.
Circle Screen
This filter reduces an image to a high-contrast grayscale version of itself. It then screens
it using a pattern of concentric circles, simulating a sort of etched screening technique.
The image is represented by varying thicknesses in the circular pattern.
Parameters in the Inspector
Center: Sets the position of the center of the circle screen.
Scale: Sets the scale of the circle screen. Values range from 0 to 100.
Contrast: Sets the contrast level. Values range from 0 to 0.99.
Dashboard controls
The Dashboard contains the Scale and Contrast controls.
Color Emboss
This filter traces high-contrast edges in the image with darker versions of the color
already in the image. This gives the object the appearance of being stamped into the
Canvas, while retaining the colors of the original image. The Direction and amount of
Relief can be customized.
Parameters in the Inspector
Direction: Sets the angle of direction of the offset emboss.
Relief: Sets the amount of the offset. Values range from 0 to 3.
Dashboard controls
The Dashboard contains the same controls as the Inspector.
