The Blur Brush is useless


Recommended Posts

I’ve been complaining about this since v1 APhoto was first released! The opacity setting has never worked and using the flow setting is not really a satisfactory alternative.

I must be missing something obvious. The flow setting seems to work exactly as I expect, as do size and hardness. What other strength controls should there be?

(The opacity control does not seem to do anything. I don't know what it would/should do; seems redundant or pointless for blur...)

That’s the problem!

Size and hardness settings are fine. That’s not a problem. Flow controls how “fast” the blur is applied, but the opacity (strength) should control how much blur is applied. As it is it’s quite difficult to fine tune how much something is blurred.
