GIMP 242
The filter rounds the corners of the image, though it remains rectangular because any
raster image may be rectangular-shaped. Nevertheless, visually we will see roundshaped
corners.
How to use this filter?
1. Open an image.
2. Choose FiltersDecorRound Corners command. Once the Script-Fu: Round
Corners dialog box opens, set the following parameters
Edge radius – set the level of rounding the corner. The higher the value, the
larger the rounding;
If checked, the Add drop-shadow checkbox adds a shadow to the image;
Shadow X offset – specify the size of the shadow according the horizontal axis at
the bottom of the image;
Shadow Y offset – specify the size of the shadow according the vertical axis on
the right of the image;
Blur radius – the higher the value, the larger the dropping shadow;
If checked, the Add background checkbox adds a background layer behind the
round corners of such a colour which is set as a background colour; though the
corners are rounded, the image remains rectangular-shaped;
If checked, the Work on copy checkbox specifies that the filter is applied to the
copy of the image and a new file is created after the filter is applied;
3. Once all parameters are set, press OK;
TASK. Apply the Round corners filter to image bor_1.jpg that would round image
corners, where the edge radius equals to 160 and drops the shadow equal to 80 the
size of which according to the horizontal and vertical axis equals to 50 and a yellow
background would be seen behind the round corners. The image to which the filter is
applied has to be placed in a separate file.
1. Open image bor_1.jpg;

Round Corners dialog box;
