What each control does
Section titled “What each control does”- Amount: how intense the vignette is.
- Radius: how far from the middle the darkening begins.
- Softness: the width of the fade between transparent and full black.
- Roundness: at zero it’s an ellipse that reaches every edge equally. One is a circle.
- Ramp: the shape of the falloff curve.
- Mix: how much of the result replaces the original.
- Matte and Invert drive the strength of the effect from another layer’s brightness; see Effects.
