The following illustration shows the application of the Starburst effect, light effects are clearly visible.
• |
Length Use this option to determine the length of rays of light. |
• |
reduce flicker This enables you to reduce murmur and therefore the emergence of streaks (rays). |
• |
Pattern A By means of a document, you can tell that by using the Pattern A option, the appearance of text areas can be varied. |
• |
Pattern B By means of a document, you can tell that by using the Pattern B option, the appearance of text areas can be varied However, this presentation is less refined. |
• |
Checker A By means of a sample, you can tell that by using the Checker A option, identification of the size of areas can be varied. Identification is modulated using this sample. |
• |
Checker B By means of a sample, you can tell that by using the Checker B option, identification of the size of areas can be varied. Identification is modulated using this sample. However, this presentation is less refined. |
• |
Radial A By means of a sample, you can tell that by using the Radial A option, identification of the size of areas can be varied. Identification is modulated using this sample. |
• |
Radial B By means of a sample, you can tell that by using the Radial B option, identification of the size of areas can be varied. Identification is modulated using this sample. However, this presentation is less refined. |
Other additional settings are available in the Scan Mode field :
• |
Luminosity This option alters the appearance of the Starburst effect, depending on the brightness. |
• |
Luminosity edge An edge is determined in terms of brightness, to which the effect then relates. |
• |
Alpha This is where the alpha channel is used; should there not be one, the effect is applied to the whole image. |
• |
Alpha Edge This is where the alpha channel is used, should there not be one the effect is applied to the whole image. An edge is determined, to which the effect then relates. |
• |
negative Luminosity This method alters the appearance of the Starburst effect, depending on the brightness. However, only the dark areas of the image are used. |
• |
Bright Edge An edge is determined in terms of brightness (tracing of bright edges only), to which the effect then relates. |
• |
Saturation This is where areas with a high concentration of color are altered in preference. |
• |
Maximum This is where areas with a maximum level of color are used; 100 % white has the same effect as 100 % red, green, blue, magenta, yellow or cyan. |
Further options for creating effects :
• |
Threshold This option determines when an effect begins, depending on the method used. |
• |
Method You have the following options for the number of rays or effect appearance: 12 Streaks 6+ Streaks 6 Streaks 4 Streaks 2 Streaks Spot
You can decide on the appearance. |
• |
Orientation This option determines the direction or rotation of the rays, when the Spot method is chosen, direction has no effect. |
• |
Scene-Intensity This is where you can control the brightness intensity of the original image. |
• |
Opacity This option strengthens the opacity (covering power) of the effect. |
• |
Saturation This is where you can strengthen or reduce the color of the ray effect. |
• |
Hue With the help of this option you can alter the shade of the ray effect. |
• |
Highlight Color This is where you can decide on a color to brighten up the ray effect. |
• |
Highlight Intensity This option enables you to set the strength of the selected brightening color. |
• |
Tint Color This is where you can choose a color with which to tint the rays. |
• |
Tint-Intensity This option enables you to set the strength of the selected tint color. |
• |
Exposure Tint This is where you determine the way in which the tint works. |
