Applying effects 425

• Angle — affects which edges appear light and shadowed. The

needle points to the direction of the light source, measured in

degrees of rotation around the circle. To set the value, you can

click in the circle, drag the needle, or set or type a number in the

control.

• Intensity — adjusts the brightness of the directional light. Note

that the Ambience value determines the brightness of the entire

image before the Intensity value is applied.

• Elevation — shows the angle of elevation of the light source

above the image. At a setting of 90 degrees, the light source is

positioned directly overhead. As you lower the value, the light

source moves closer to the image, producing longer shadows.

Outer Bevel

Edit workspace

The Outer Bevel effect gives a selection a three-dimensional look by

creating the appearance of raised edges. It expands the size of the

selection by the width of the bevel.

You must first make a selection in the image before choosing the Outer

Bevel command from the Effects menu. You can access the Outer Bevel

effect dialog box by clicking Effects  3D Effects  Outer Bevel.

The Outer Bevel dialog box contains the following controls:

• Bevel — specifies the bevel shape

• Width — specifies the width of the beveled edge in pixels

• Smoothness — controls the slope (sharpness) and thickness of the

edge. As this value increases, the edges become more rounded.

As it decreases, the edges appear thinner and steeper.

• Depth — controls the height of the edge. As this value increases,

the edge becomes more pronounced.
