Omino Glass

Determines the amount of smooth beveling added around the edges of the opaque parts of the layer.

The amount of refraction applied where there are changes in the height map or bevel curvature. This is a maximum refraction distance in pixels.

The amount of chromatic aberration applied where there are changes in the height map or bevel curvature. This is similar to the Refraction setting but only operates on pixel hues.

The overall amount that surface features (changes in the height map or bevel curvature) affect refraction and chromatic aberration (if this is reduced to zero, Refraction and Chromatic Aberration are ignored)

The number of height map samples that are used to calculate the surface normals used for chromatic aberration and refraction. If this is too low, banding can occur because the change from one pixel to the next causes aliasing in the surface normals. As this increases, more nearby pixels are averaged to compute the surface normal, so less aliasing happens, but details in the surface will also become more smoothed out.

A tint color that is combined with whatever is behind the layer, based on the setting of the Blend parameter. This color is combined using Multiply blending so it simulates the look of colored glass.

The amount of Color applied to tint the glass.

Controls how the surface of the shape defined by the bevel, roughness, and height map is shaded.

• None: No lighting is applied (only refraction and chromatic aberration).
• Point Light: Shades the shape as though it were lit with a point light. Point lights have a particular position in 3D space and emit light in all directions from that position. A light bulb is a point light.
• Directional Light: Shades the shape as though it were lit with a directional light. Directional lights have a particular direction in 3D space, but the distance is not used. Direction lights are assumed to be infinitely distant. Directional lights are typically used for light sources that are very far away, like the sun. The difference between directional and point light sources is easiest to see in specular reflections on shiny surfaces.

The brightness of the light source, used when Shading is set to Point Light or Directonal Light.

Controls how shiny the surface is. Higher values make the surface appear more metallic.

The amount of specular reflectivity in the shape's surface material. Use lower values for a matte finish, and higher values for smooth, glossy surfaces.

The amount of ambient light in the environment. Ambient light is light that comes from all around, without a particular direction, and is useful for shapes in scenes with lots of soft, scattered light. Lower values result in less ambient light, for a harsher lighting effect and more pronounced shadows. Higher values result in less pronounced, weaker shadows.

The color of the light source.

The direction of the light source, used when Shading is set to Point Light or Directional Light.

The distance of the light source from the shape (not from the screen). Positive values place the light source in front of the shape; negative values place the light source behind the shape. This is only used when Shading is set to Point Light or Directonal Light.

When turned on, the luminance of pixels in the layer is used as a height map, affecting lighting, chromatic aberration, and refraction.

The amount of randomly generated roughness to apply to the height map (in addition to any roughness from the layer luminance or curvature from the bevel).

Scales the randomly generated roughness.

Controls small, gradual changes in the random pattern of roughness in the layer surface when Amount is greater than zero. Animate this to produce flowing motion.

A value used to generate the pattern of random roughness in the layer surface when Amount is greater than zero. Change this for a different pattern of roughness. Use keyframe animation to make the roughness change radically every frame.
