Chapter 28 Filters 871
directionFilter
Enables an effect similar to Emboss.
directionFilterangle
This parameter changes the lighting angle when the directionFilter parameter is
turned on.
despeckle
Similar to a median filter, this parameter removes isolated pixels up to the despeckle
radius (in pixels), and can be useful for eliminating noise from the resulting image.
xBlur, yBlur
Blurs the resulting image after the edge detection has been performed. By default, the
yBlur parameter is linked to the xBlur.
xDilateErode, yDilateErode
Applies the DilateErode effect to the first filter pass. By default, the yDilateErode
parameter is linked to the xDilateErode.
rgbEdges
Inherits color from the input image instead of just black and white, and applies it to the
final output image.
addEdgesToImage
Mixes the resulting image from the edge detection node to the original input image, to
create a blend of both.
method
A pop-up menu that lets you select which edge detection method to use. Your
choices are:
• Sobel
• Babu
• Fast
Note: Babu is an algorithm that is extremely slow and cannot be used on large (2K or
larger) plates. It is maintained for compatibility purposes.
babuSteps
The steps performed when using the Babu filter. More steps result in a higher quality
image, but are more processor-intensive to render.
bytes
Three buttons let you choose the output bit depth. You can choose among 8-bit, 16-bit,
and float.
