Distorts Filter Description
Shift Rows of images are moved either horizontally or vertically.
Spherize This filter produces a kind of bubble the size of the picture or selection, giving
the impression that the content is encircled by a sphere.
Value Propagate It operates on colour borders by distributing pixels that differ in a specific
manner from their surrounding pixels and configuring the options for mode
and propagate.
Video Degradation It resembles the distortion that low-resolution monitors generate in video.
Waves, Whirl and Pinch, Wind Using the effects of waves, whirling and pinching, and wind, it distorts an
image.
Curve Bend This tool is useful for altering the form of any layer and typically distorts
images by setting up a bending curve. Layers are used to progressively apply
the distortion from one image or selection border to the next. Option settings
that are accessible can be used to control curve bending. By selecting higher
and lower, respectively, the layer’s top and bottom can be modified.
Swap will switch the lower and upper curves, while Mirror will produce a
lower curve that is the top curve’s mirror image. Reset flattens the picture to
its initial state.
Emboss(legacy) The active layer or selection is stamped and carved by this filter, which gives
it relief with bumps and hollows. Dark regions are carved, while bright ones
are raised.
NewsPrint It mimics the look of a newspaper.
Pagecurl It raises the edges of the images.
