StylistRobert Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 How can I use the soften or blur effect faded? I thought about to give the effect of distance / depth with in the way of fade in transparency :?: :idea: If this function doesn't exist - if anybody was interested in programing it great!

BoltBait Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Use 2 layers, one with the full effect, the other with minimal effect... transparent fade between the two layers.

crosswalker Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Step by step, but basically the same as BoltBaits answer. 1) Duplicate the layer containing the object to be blurred. 2) Blur the top layer by the maximum blur desired. 3) Set the primary color to White 100% transparency (opaque) and the secondary color to White with 0% transparency (transparent) 4) Draw a linear gradient (or any other type of gradient really) on the blurred layer with the alpha only option selected. 5) Adjust the opaqity of the blurred layer to your preferences. 6) You're done!

StylistRobert Posted February 13, 2007 Author Share Posted February 13, 2007 :shock: Oh my god! So many steps for a special marked part of an image. I think it will be easier the way I done it before marking parts of the array and do soften in added steps... Thank you both for your support Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoltBait Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Maybe we don't understand what you were asking. Perhaps if you could show us an example...

barkbark00 Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 :shock: Oh my god! So many steps for a special marked part of an image. I think it will be easier the way I done it before marking parts of the array and do soften in added steps... Thank you both for your support Its 3 steps really: 1. Duplicate original layer. 2. Blur top layer at desired amount 3. Draw transparent Gradient. Thats it! I do it all the time.

StylistRobert Posted February 16, 2007 Author Share Posted February 16, 2007 Maybe we don't understand what you were asking.Perhaps if you could show us an example... OK. Here you are: the source file with the blue marked array: the first step: faded blured array: the second steps: faded blured and faded gamma ( lightend for daylight and darkend for a local backward light source in the dark ): this could be reallize with a slider with directions darken/lighten The effect will be a photorealistic depth :idea: :?: If this was programable as an effect it would be great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
