USING PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS 9 Filters, effects, styles, and artwork 204 To create the effect of dragging in a straight line between the current point and the previous point that you clicked, Shift-click with the Warp, Shift Pixels, or Reflection tool. 6 To apply the changes in the preview image to the actual image, click OK. 7 (Optional) To revert to a previous state, do one of the following: • Select the Reconstruct tool , and hold down the mouse button or drag over the distorted areas. The restoration occurs more quickly at the brush center. Shift-click to reconstruct in a straight line between the current point and the previous point that you clicked. • To restore the entire preview image to its state when you opened the dialog box, press Alt (Option in Mac OS) and click Reset. Alternatively, click Revert to restore the original image and reset the tools to their previous settings. Ocean Ripple The Ocean Ripple filter adds randomly spaced ripples to the image's surface, making the image look as if it were under water. Pinch The Pinch filter squeezes a selection or layer inward or outward. Apply the Pinch filter 1 In the Edit workspace, select an image, layer, or area. 2 Choose Distort > Pinch from the Filter menu. 3 Drag the slider to the right, into positive values, to pinch a selection inward toward its center; or to the left, into negative values, to shift a selection outward. Then click OK. More Help topics “About filters” on page 192 Polar Coordinates The Polar Coordinates filter converts a selection from its rectangular to polar coordinates, and vice versa, according to a selected option. You can use this filter to create a cylinder anamorphosis—art popular in the 18th century—in which the distorted image appears normal when viewed in a mirrored cylinder. Ripple The Ripple filter creates an undulating pattern on a selection, like ripples on the surface of a pond. For greater control, use the Wave filter. Options include the amount and size of ripples. Shear The Shear filter distorts an image along a curve. More Help topics “About filters” on page 192 Last updated 1/27/2011
USING PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS 9 Filters, effects, styles, and artwork 205 Apply the Shear filter 1 In the Edit workspace, select an image, layer, or area. 2 Choose Distort > Shear from the Filter menu. 3 To define a distortion curve, do one of the following in the Shear dialog box: • Click anywhere on either side of the vertical line. • Click on the vertical line, and then drag the new curve point. You can drag any point along the curve to adjust the distortion, and you can add additional curve points. 4 Select one of the following in the Undefined Areas options and click OK: Wrap Around Fills new voids in the image with content from the opposite side of the image. Repeat Edge Pixels Extends the colors of pixels. Banding may result if the edge pixels are different colors. You can click Defaults to start over and return the curve to a straight line. Spherize The Spherize filter gives objects a 3D effect by wrapping a selection around or inside a spherical shape, distorting and stretching the image. Apply the Spherize filter 1 In the Edit workspace, select an image, layer, or area. 2 Choose Distort > Spherize from the Filter menu. 3 For Amount, enter a positive value to stretch the image outward as though it were wrapped around a sphere. Enter a negative amount to compress the image inward as though it were wrapped inside a sphere. 4 For Mode, choose normal, horizontal, or vertical, and then click OK. More Help topics “About filters” on page 192 Twirl The Twirl filter rotates an image or selection more sharply in the center than at the edges. Specifying an angle produces a twirl pattern. You can drag the slider to the right into positive values to twirl the image clockwise, drag the slider to the left into negative values to twirl counterclockwise, or enter a value between -999 and 999. Wave The Wave filter creates an undulating pattern on a layer or selection. Apply the Wave filter 1 In the Edit workspace, select an image, layer, or area. 2 Choose Distort > Wave from the Filter menu. 3 Select a wave type in the Type section: Sine (creates a rolling wave pattern), Triangle, or Square. 4 To set the number of wave generators, drag the slider or enter a number between 1 and 999.
