Liquify filter

Liquify filter overview

The Liquify filter lets you push, pull, rotate, reflect, pucker, and bloat any area of an image. The distortions you create
can be subtle or drastic, which makes the Liquify command a powerful tool for retouching images as well as creating
artistic effects. The Liquify filter can be applied to 8-bits-per-channel or 16-bits per-channel images.

Distorting an image using the Liquify filter

Tools, options, and an image preview for the Liquify filter are available in the Liquify dialog box. To display the dialog
box, choose Filter

> Liquify.
