Ring
Ring is a light effect in the shape of a ring. You can modify the size, width, opacity, and edge softness of the element.
The Color of the Ring is set on a gradient line that has two white sliders initially. The left slider represents the color in the center of the element, the right slider - the edge color, with soft transitions between them.
To change a slider color you should double-click on it with the left mouse button and choose a color from the Standard color selection dialog box. You can add an infinite number of intermediate sliders and set a color to each of them.
The Size parameter sets the size of the ring element as a percent of the minimal image size (width and height).

| Size = 50% |
Size = 80% |
Visible size of the element depends on the softness of the edges (Softness parameter). Softer edges fade quicker, therefore the higher is the Softness parameter value, the smaller is the visible size of the element.
The Softness parameter regulates the softness of the element's edges. The higher is the Softness value, the softer are the edges. A Ring element with Softness set to zero has sharp edges.

| Softness = 20% |
Softness = 80% |
The Opacity parameter sets the opacity level of the light effect. The default value of the parameter is 100% that corresponds to a solid Ring element. The less is the parameter value the more transparent is the element. With Opacity =0% the element is completely transparent.

| Opacity = 50% |
Opacity = 100% |
The Width parameter sets the ring's width.

| Width = 10 |
Width = 30 |
