Cross Blur
Cross Blur blurs an image in two perpendicular directions and blends them to produce stylized crosshatch textures. Ideal for subtle artistic effects or dramatic sharpening combos.
| Parameters: | |
| Blur Type | Constant produces stronger effects; Soft adds subtle cross blur. |
| Blend | Combines the two directional blur outputs. |
| Size | Controls blur intensity. 1.0 = max blur. Values up to 4.0 allowed. |
| Direction | Sets blur rotation. 1.0 equals a full 360° turn. You can animate directions up to 100.0. |
Crosshatch effect: Combine Cross Blur with a Sharpen filter to create layered, textured visuals.
