Example for the “Stain” filter

“Stain” applied with the gradient “Cold Steel 2”


This filter adds stains to the image.

Every stain is created in a layer of its own. The stain layers are randomly moved to let the stains spread out (at the end you may see the boundary of the moved top layer). So after applying the filter you can easily edit (e.g., move, scale, remove) the stains, or create additional stains using the filter again.

If the image is in grayscale mode or indexed mode, this menu entry is disabled.

The number of stains (1-10).

Somente escurecer

Uma vez que cada mancha é criada numa camada separada, todas as camadas tem que ser combinadas para o efeito final da imagem. Se esta opção estiver ligada, o Modo de camada das camadas de mancha é configurado para ser “Somente escurecer”, senão, o modo “Normal” é usado.

The layer mode determines how the pixels of the layers are combined. If “Darken only” is unchecked we use “Normal” mode, and every stain covers the pixels of the layers below. If “Darken only” is checked, stains cover the corresponding pixels of the layers below them only if these pixels are lighter.
