Focus blur Plug-In
This plug-in makes a out of focus with luminosity and depth, like a
sight or lenses. It can be used with depth map, depth fakes and
shining effect. Also it works as a simple and applicable blur.
It requires the Gimp
version 2.4 and compiling environment.
Fast rendering requires FFTW 3
(recommended).
./configure ; make install-user
If the Gimp has been installed in non-standard directory,
add build time option --with-gimp-prefix=<dir>.
The directory is same as specified with --prefix=<dir>
for building the Gimp.
See INSTALL about other options.
version 3.2.4
- merged changes of version 3.0.20
version 3.0.20
- AAA (Anti-anti-alias) is supported.
- The result of focal point is clear in FFT normal quality.
Changes from older version (fblur 2.x)
Sticking to usable,
and it improves readability, interface and performance.
- It is adapted for Gimp 2.4 series, and it is being maintained with priority.
- Parallel computing has been supported, it works with multi-processors.
- FFT has been taken, it makes performance in rendering.
- Interface for brush model was improved.
- Interface for shining effect was improved.
- Depth processing was improved.
- It is using percentage for almost numerical parameters.
also there is lost features.
- Color is lost. it's not smart about implement. I have no idea.
- Ignoring white is lost. I couldn't believe it.
- Switching black and white for depth map is obsolete.
specification is fixed with black means near.
- Gap adjustment is lost. center of gravity could be made by an option.
- Ignoring tool tips, it's model on common plug-ins.
