#### 6.15.1. Overview

Рисунок 17.148. Applying example for the Inner Glow filter

Original image

Inner Glow applied with a white color on a duplicated layer

This filter replaces the contents of the layer with an inner glow over the edges of the object. This filter needs a layer with alpha channel to work on. It works best if you first duplicate the layer and apply the inner glow on top.

#### 6.15.2. Activating the Filter

This filter is found in the main menu under Filters → Light and Shadow → Inner Glow….

  These options are described in Розділ 2, «Common Features».

Grow Shape

  The shape used to expand the shadow. Choices are Square, Circle (default), and Diamond.

X, Y

  These set the coordinates where the glow starts from. By changing this, the glow can be made thicker on one side.

Blur Radius

  This determines the size of the blur.

Grow Radius

  The distance to expand the shadow before blurring, or when using negative values to contract the shadow.

Opacity

  This determines how transparent or solid the inner glow will be.

Color

  The color to use for the glow. By default picks the current foreground color, but it can be changed using either the color selection button or the color picker.

Median fix for non-affected pixels on edges

  Median blur covers unaffected pixels. Setting this slider too high will make it outline-like. Only slide it high enough to cover thin shaped corners.
