Crop Parameters (for 3D Primitives)
Opacity Use to adjust the level of transparency.
• 0 sets the object to completely transparent.
• 100 sets the object to completely opaque.
• Intermediate values produce varying degrees of
transparency.
Determines the final opacity by mixing the Opacity
and the Mix Back settings. Neither parameter
overrides the other; the two parameters have a
cumulative effect.
Parameter Description
Distance Crops the edges of the image.
The Left, Top, Right, and Bottom settings determine
the width, in pixels, of the cropped area on each
edge of the image.
Softness Blurs the edges of the image by reducing their
opacity.
The Left, Top, Right, and Bottom parameters
determine the width, in pixels, of the transparent
band on each edge of the image.
These controls are locked by default, so when you
adjust one, all four settings update.
To adjust these controls individually:
1. Click the Lock icon.
2. Adjust the appropriate parameter.
The Softness values are unaffected by the Distance
values, allowing you to soften the edges of an
uncropped image as in these examples.
n
For both the Distance and Softness controls,
Top, Left, Bottom, and Right refer to the sides
of the original image before it is transformed
in 3D space.
