Effects Parameters

    Menu -> Effects -> Apply Effects...



The Effects Parameters lets you apply effects to your image. You can view thumbnail examples of what each effect does. You can also change the settings of each effect you have applied to achieve the effect you want. Because it is so flexible, the Effects Parameters dialog box is often the best choice for applying effects. However, not all effects listed in the Effects menu are available in the Effects Parameters dialog box.

To apply effects from the Effects Parameters dialog box
1. Do one of the following:
    To apply an effect to an entire layer, make sure that the layer is active and selected.
    To apply an effect to a selection of an image background, make a select area.
    To apply an effect to the entire image background, make sure that the background is selected.
2. Choose Menu -> Effects -> Apply Effects.
3. Click an effect name to add the effects. You may need to click the inverted triangle next to the effect category (pop-up menu) to see the complete list of effects.
4. Enter values or select options for the effect you selected. Also, you can try another effect if necessary.
6. When you are satisfied with the results, click OK.
Repeat this procedure to add more effects.
