Illustration of Photoshop built-in filter 12: Styling

Filter Group 12th: stylize (stylized)

　　stylize (stylized) filters are mainly used in the image of pixels, you can enhance the color boundaries of the image, so the contrast of the image of this type of filter has a greater impact, the style of the filter ultimately create an Impressionist image effect.

　　1, find Edges ( search Edge filter )

　　function: Use the dark line relative to the white background to sketch the edge of the image and get the approximate outline of the image. If we increase the contrast of the image first and then apply this filter, we can get more detailed edges.

　　Tuning Parameters: None

　　Graphic effect:

Original Image Lookup Edge

The original image increases the contrast and finds the edge

　　2, Trace contour ( contour filter )

　　function: similar to the effect of finding edge filters, but allows you to specify the tonal level of the transition area, primarily to outline the color range of the image.

　　Adjust parameters:

　　levels: You can specify the thresholds of the levels (0 to 255) by dragging the Triangle slider or by entering a numeric value.
　　Lower: The color of the pixel is less than the range of the specified levels.
　　Higher: The area that outlines the pixel color above the specified color level.

　　Graphic effect:

Contour of original image (lower)

Contour (higher)

　　3. Wind ( air filter )

　　function: to simulate the effect of wind by increasing the small horizontal line on the boundary of the image with large color difference.

　　Adjust parameters:

　　Wind: the delicate breeze effect.

　　Gale: Stronger than the wind effect, the image changes very much.

　　Hurricane: The strongest wind effect, the image has been distorted.

　　from left: the wind blows from the left.

　　from the right: the wind blows from the right-hand side.

　　Graphic effect:

　　4, Emboss ( Embossed effect filter )

　　function: to generate the effect of protruding and emboss, the greater the contrast, the more obvious the effect of the image relief.

　　Adjust parameters:

　　angle: The direction of illumination for the light source.

　　Height: The height of the bulge.

　　Quantity: as a percentage of the number of colors, you can highlight the details of the image.

　　Graphic effect:

　　 Original Image Relief effect

　　5, diffuse ( diffusion filter )

　　function: Stir the pixels of the image to produce a similar effect to view the image through the frosted.

　　Adjust parameters:

　　Normal: to randomly move pixels, so that the color edge of the image to produce the effect of burrs.

　　Dimming Preference: replaces lighter pixels with darker pixels.

　　Lighten priority: replace darker pixels with lighter pixels.

　　Graphic effect:

Original image Normal Mode

　　 dimming priority mode lightens priority mode

　　6, Tiles ( collage filter )

　　action: A tile that splits the image into several squares at a specified value and is randomly offset by the value of the set displacement percentage.

　　Adjust parameters:

　　Number of Tiles: Sets the minimum number of tile tiles that are split in the row or column.

　　Maximum Displacement: the maximum distance (percentage) at which the tile is offset from its original position.

　　Background color : fills the gap between tile blocks with a backdrop.

　　Foreground color: fills the gap between tile tiles with the foreground color.

　　Inverse color: The original image of the reverse-phase color image filling the gap between the tiles.

　　unchanged color: fills the gap between tile tiles using the original image.

　　Graphic effect:

　　 Original image collage effect

　　7, Solarize ( exposure over filter )

　　function: The image produces the original image and the original image of the inverse phase of the effect of mixing. (Note: This filter cannot be applied in lab mode)

　　Tuning Parameters: None

　　Graphic effect:

　　 Excessive effect of original image exposure

　　8, Extrude ( protruding filter )

　　function: to divide an image into a specified three-dimensional cubic block or pyramid. (Note: This filter cannot be applied in lab mode)

　　Adjust parameters:

　　BLOCK: The image is decomposed into three-dimensional cubic blocks, and the image is filled with the front of the cubic block.

　　pyramid: split the image into a pyramid-like triangular cone.

　　Size: Sets the bottom dimensions of the block or pyramid.

　　Depth: the depth at which the control block is highlighted.

　　random: The depth of the block is randomly selected after this item is checked.

　　based on color order: When this item is selected, the depth of the block varies depending on the level of the color.

　　Cube Front: Check this to fill the front of the cube with the average color of the block.

　　Mask Incomplete BLOCK: causes all the blocks to be included in the color area.

　　Graphic effect:

　　 Original image block

Pyramid Cube Front

　　9, Glowing Edges ( illuminate edge filter )

　　function: make the edge of the image produce luminous effect. (Note: This filter cannot be applied in Lab,cmyk and grayscale mode)

　　Adjust parameters:

　　Edge Width: Adjusts the width of the illuminated edges.

　　Edge Brightness: controls the brightness value of the edge.

　　smoothness: a smooth illuminated edge.

　　Graphic effect:

　　 The original image illuminates the edge effect
