2 Do one of the following:
• To create a Radial Filter, click and drag the mouse across the region of interest. This will draw an elliptical shape,
which determines the area that is either affected or excluded from the adjustments you perform.
• To edit an existing Radial Filter, click any of the gray handles on the photo.
While drawing, press Shift to constrain the Radial Filter to a circle.
3 To determine what area of the photo is modified, select or clear the Invert Mask checkbox. The checkbox, by default,
is not selected.
• Invert Mask not selected (default): Changing any setting affects the image region outside the marquee area.
• Invert Mask selected: Changing any setting affects the image region inside the marquee area.
4 Adjust the size (width and height) and orientation of the Radial Filter added. Select a filter, and:
• Click and drag the center of the filter to move and reposition it.
• Hover the pointer any of the four filter handles, and when the pointer icon changes, click and drag to change the
size of the filter.
• Hover the pointer close to the edge of the filter, and when the pointer icon changes, click and drag the edge of
the filter to change the orientation.
5 Use the adjustment sliders (shown in step 1) to create the desired visual changes. Use the Feather slider to adjust the
visual falloff of the applied adjustment.
6 Repeat steps 2 through 5 to continue adding or editing filters.
7 Click Reset, to remove all the Radial Filters applied to your image.
