Frequently Asked Questions

What is radial blur?

Radial blur is an effect that creates a blur radiating from a central point. It's commonly used to create motion effects, draw attention to a focal point, or add artistic distortion to images.

What's the difference between circular and spiral blur?

Circular blur creates a uniform blur that radiates outward in concentric circles. Spiral blur adds a rotational component, creating a vortex-like effect that twists as it blurs.

How do I control the center point of the blur?

Use the X and Y position sliders to set the center point as a percentage of the image dimensions. 50% × 50% centers the blur in the middle of the image.

What does the falloff mode do?

Falloff controls how the blur intensity decreases from the center. Linear creates a smooth gradient, Exponential accelerates the blur, Gaussian provides natural falloff, and Smoothstep creates a smooth S-curve transition.

What is the purpose of blur passes?

Blur passes determine how many times the blur algorithm is applied. More passes create smoother, more complex blur effects but take longer to process.

Should I preserve the center point?

Preserving the center keeps the focal point sharp while blurring the surroundings. This is useful for creating depth of field effects or drawing attention to a specific area.

What quality setting should I use?

Higher quality settings (8-10) produce smoother results but take longer. Quality 5-6 is good for most purposes, while 10 is best for professional results.

Can I combine radial blur with other effects?

Yes! Radial blur works great with other effects. Try combining it with color adjustments, sharpening, or additional blur effects for creative results.
