davemac2015 Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 (edited) It would be extremely cool to be able to apply a gradient to a Gaussian blur on an object. Say you have a rectangle - the Gaussian blur could go from 0 at one end to 10px (or whatever) on the other. The object would start out solid and crisp at the one end, and gradually become more blurred towards the other. Would be nice for creating more realistic shadows, etc. Edited September 20, 2018 by davemac2015 Added "Feature Request" to title; then added (crude!) example image Aammppaa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aammppaa Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 This would be a nice feature. Adjustment layers in Affinity already come with their own mask layer, so that they can be selectively applied with ease. It doesn't seem like much of a stretch to do something similar for effects. It is possible to fake this result with current tools, but it is a bit more laborious. You would need to use 2 or more copies, one with the blur applied and the other crisp, then cross-fade between the two with a linear transparency. davemac2015 1 Quote Win10 Home x64 | AMD Ryzen 7 2700X @ 3.7GHz | 48 GB RAM | 1TB SSD | nVidia GTX 1660 | Wacom Intuos Pro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
