Page «Effects»

You can apply one or more Glass effects from the Effects page, including Flip Horizontal, Flip Vertical, Gray Scale, Rotate x90 degrees, Rotate smooth, and Noise.

When multiple effects are used, they are applied to the magnified area in the order in which they are listed (added). Some effects provide more optimal results when applied either before or after other effects. For example, if Noise is added before Grey Scale, the “noise” will be too grey. Use the Glass Preview to immediately view the results. Use the Add and Delete buttons to arrange effects in the order that works best for you.

WARNING: Glass effects require additional system resources, especially when combined. If your processor operates at less than 800MHz, you may experience slowdown of the Glass and should limit effects.

Each effect is described below.

· Flip Horiztonal. Flips the magnified area side-to-side (left to right).

· Flip Vertical. Flips the magnified area top-to-bottom.

· Grey Scale. The magnified area is displayed in grayscale (no color) which is convenient when editing text without the distraction of color.

· Rotate x90 degree. Rotates the magnified area on fixed corners. Select 0, 90, 180, or 270 degrees.

· Smooth Rotate. Rotates the magnified area on any user-defined corner. Enter any value, negative or positive. This effect is slower than the Rotate x90 degree effect.

· Noise. “Noise” manifests as a slightly perceivable flickering of the image in the magnified area, which can actually serve to relieve the eyestrain of a static image when working over an extended period of time.
