580 Corel Painter X3 Getting Started Guide
The “M” is a floating shape. The blur on the shadow was created by using
Depth of Field.
There are five different methods for applying Depth of Field:
Uniform Color — applies the effect uniformly to the image
Paper — applies the effect by using the paper texture luminance (brightness) as a
mapping model. More of the effect is applied to the dark areas in the paper grain;
less of the effect is applied to the light areas. If you want to experiment with the
effect, keep the Papers panel open while you apply the effect. This way you can
switch to different papers and modify the paper controls.
Image Luminance — uses the image’s luminance as the model for the effect.
More of the effect is applied to dark areas in the original image; less color is applied
to light areas.
Original Luminance — uses the luminance of the clone source (or a pattern) as
the model for the effect. More of the effect is applied to dark areas in the clone
source (or pattern); less color is applied to light areas.
Alpha Channel or Layer Mask — sets the values in the channel or layer mask as
the model for the effect. More of the effect is applied to dark areas in the layer mask
or channel; less color is applied to light areas. You can use this method only if you
have a saved alpha channel or a layer mask in your image.
To apply Depth of Field uniformly
1 To apply the effect to:
• The canvas — Click the Canvas in the Layers panel.
• A selection — Click a selection tool from the toolbox, and drag in the document
window to select an area.
• A layer — Click a layer in the Layers panel.
