Preview

Parameter setting results are interactively displayed in preview.

Type
  • Adaptive: Adapts radius to image or selection content (using Histogram). If this option is checked, radius slider is not efficient. It renders a result smoother than with radius alone.

  • Recursive: Repeats filter action which gets stronger.

Radius

Radius: Sets size of action window from 1 (3x3 pixels) to 20 (41x41). This window moves over the image, and the color in it is smoothed, so imperfections are removed.

Black level

Black level: Removes pixels darker than set value (0-255).

White level

White level: Removes pixels whiter than set value (0-255).
