Reconstruct distortions
After you distort the preview image, you can use a variety of controls and reconstruction modes to reverse changes
or redo the changes in new ways. Reconstructions can be applied two ways. You can apply a reconstruction to the
entire image, smoothing out the distortion in unfrozen areas, or you can use the reconstruction tool to reconstruct
specific areas. If you want to prevent reconstruction of distorted areas, you can use the Freeze tool.
