Remember that in general we maintain the overall brightness of original image by using values in the matrix that sum to 1.įor edge filters, the central value is what’s negative, with positive surrounding values.įor an edge filter, use a negative center value and surround it with a symmetrical pattern of positive values. For a sharpening filter, we also use a positive central value, but this time surround the central cell with negative values.įor a Sharpen filter, use a positive center value and surround it with a symmetrical pattern of negative values. With the blur filters, we add to the matrix positive peripheral cell values around a positive central value. Lessen the effect of a filter by increasing the value in the center cell. The Sample Blur filter also shows us how in general to get a blurring filter:įor a Blur filter, use a positive center value and surround it with a symmetrical pattern of other positive values. WHERE IS “FACTOR” AND “OFFSET” IN ZBRUSH ?!?!?! I don’t know. To compensate for a sum that deviates from 1, use a FACTOR equal to that sum to maintain the image brightness of the original image. We can also use the FACTOR to help adjust the brightness of filtered image, by using a value that only partially compensates for the sum’s deviation from 1. This will work whether the sum (and corresponding FACTOR) is a positive value or a negative value.
To compensate for a sum that deviates from 1, we must use a FACTOR equal to that sum to maintain the image brightness of the original image. And 1 is just what we need if we want the brightness of the original image to be maintained in the filtered image. By specifying a FACTOR of 9, we divide the sum of 9 by 9, which gives us a result of 1. This sum is greater than 1 by a factor of 9, and we can compensate for that by making use of the FACTOR. Notice that here the sum of the matrix is 9: there are nine cells with values of 1, and adding together those nine 1’s gives us a sum of 9. Note: In other package we can compensate the filter effect with the FACTOR and OFFSET values. To darken an image, make the matrix sum less than 1. To brighten an image, make the matrix sum greater than 1. Unless otherwise compensated for, keep the matrix sum at 1 to retain the brightness of the original image. But keep in mind that if we stray too far from 1, we’ll get a filter that turns an image either entirely black or entirely white! Sometimes we want to make a filter to brighten or darken images. If the sum is greater than 1, the filtered image will be brighter. If the sum is less than 1, the filtered image will be darker than the original. This will ensure that the overall brightness of the filtered image is the same as the brightness of the original image. What we’ll normally want to do is make sure that the sum of the values in all the cells in the matrix equals 1. The filter depends from RGB Intensity value and DrawSize value too. Try to modify the Intensity value, tha Autoscale and the Additive checkbox. To apply the filter paint over image use Dots, Freehand or DragRect as Stroke type.
Convolution Matrix adds together the color values in the 3x3 (or 5x5) pixel box around each pixel, multiplying each pixel in the box by the corresponding value from the matrix. The idea is that the pixel we are processing, and the eight that surround it, are each given a weight.Ĭonvolution Matrix allow us to create simple custom filters. The surrounding cells correspond to the pixels surrounding the target pixel. The center cell in the matrix corresponds to the pixel that the filter will affect. So what is a convolution filter ? Essentially, it’s a matrix, as follows: Sorry for any errors or wrong interpretation. With this tutorial i’ll try to explain my experiment on Custom Filter tool.
