In the Effect Controls panel:

  • Matte is an input to an effect, scaling the strength. Invert inverts the mattes for calculating strength.
  • Background: the layer whose light spills.
  • Width: how far the wrap reaches inside the edge.
  • Intensity: how strong the spill is.
  • 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.
