Ragged Frame Esta información está disponible solamente en inglés. La version española aparecerá pronto.
The Ragged Frame is a frame consisting of medium-sized random particles that create an effect of ragged edges. The width, the color and the level of effect are adjusted in the Settings panel.
The Settings panel offers the following parameters for this picture frame.
Frame Color. The parameter sets the color of the frame. Select a color by double-clicking the color plate and choosing a color from the Standard Color Selection Dialog.
|
| Rose color is set |
Transparent. When the check-box Transparent is enabled, the image under the frame gets transparent. One may need it on an image with several layers; in this way, the image on the lower layer(s) is visible and serves as a frame.

| Check-box Transparent enabled |
Frame Width. The parameter sets the width of the frame that will include the defined number of sub-frames. The values of the parameter vary from 0 to 100%. At 0% there is no frame, at 100% the width of the frame makes a quarter of the minimum image size (as to its width or height). For example, for an image 600 x 800 pixels the 100% width of the frame is calculated as follows: 1/4 from the minimum size (600 px) is 150 pixels.

|
| Frame Width = 15% |
Frame Width = 100% |
Merge Level. The parameter sets the level of particles merging at the inner edge of the frame. The values of the parameter vary from 0 to 8. At Merge Level = 0 the frame consists of small random particles, as you increase the value, particles get larger and merge to form a ragged frame.

|
|
| Merge Level = 0 |
Merge Level = 1 |
Merge Level = 3 |
|
|
|
| Merge Level = 4 |
Merge Level = 6 |
Merge Level˙ = 8 |
Random Seed. It is the starting number for the random number generator that defines the distribution of particles at the inner border of the frame. It can be any number between 0 and 9999. Every number correponds to a particular particles distribution (provided all other parameters stay the same).
