Remarks

Feathering is a technique used in computer graphics software to smooth or blur the edges of a feature. The term is inherited from a technique of fine retouching using fine feathers.

The feathering effect can be "sharp" (square angles), "round" (curved angles, not for ellipses) or "cut" (angle removed, not for ellipses). The amount of feathered area is defined by the "Width" parameter (with a maximum value of object width or height). GND import/export updated.

Feathering is available also from the "Area Color" panel.

Return value
