Bevel Emboss

Brief Description

Adds relief to an image. In Luminance mode, the luminance of the source image is used to determine the contours used to create the relief. In Alpha mode, the alpha channel of the source image is used to create the relief.

Controls

Parameter / Script Name	Type	Default	Function
`Enabled / enabled`	Boolean	On
`Source / source_type`	Choice	Alpha	- *Luminance* - *Alpha*
`Threshold / threshold`	Float	0.25
`Style / style`	Choice	Inner Bevel	- *Outer Bevel* - *Inner Bevel* - *Emboss* - *Pillow Emboss*
`Technique / technique`	Choice	Smooth	- *Smooth* - *Chisel Hard*
`Direction / direction`	Choice	Up	- Up - *Down*
`Size / size`	Float	5
`Soften / soften`	Float	0
`Soften Downscale Threshold / normalMapBlurDownscaleThreshold`	Float	15	When the size of the normal map blur exceeds this threshold, the map is downscaled before blurring and upscaled in output, which approximates what the blur would do a much faster speed. Increasing this value increases quality at the cost of processing speed.

`Light Color / light_color`	Color	1, 1, 1, 0.75
`Light Mode / light_mode`	Choice	Screen	- *Add*: Ac + Dc

min(1,Bc / (1 - Ac))
else
1
Brightens the backdrop color to reflect the source color. Painting with black produces no changes. - *Lighten*: max(Ac, Bc)

Lightens the source image to reflect the destination image color - *Screen: Ac + Bc - Ac Bc
The source and destination colors are complemented, multiplied and the resultant color replaces the destination. The resultant color is always at least as light as either the source or destination colour. - *Hard-light*: if Ac <= 0.5
multiply(Ac)
else
screen(Ac)
The source color is used to determine if the resultant is either a multiplication or screening of the colors. If the source color is lighter than 0.5, the destination is lightened as if it were screened. If the source color is darker than 0.5, the destination is darkened, as if it were multiplied. - *Hard Mix: if vivid-light(Ac,Bc) < 0.5 then 0 else 1 - Linear Light*: if Ac < 0.5

else
Bc + (2 * Ac - 1) * (sqrt(Bc) - Bc)
The source colour is used to determine if the resultant color is darkened or lightened. If the source color is lighter than 0.5, the destination is lightened.
