Sharpen
The “Threshold” slider adjusts the minimum brightness change that will be sharpened. Adjusng this up can
produce more pronounced edges, while leaving subtler edges untouched, however, they can exclude areas of
lower contrast.
The “Amount” slider quanes, as a percentage, how much darker and how much ligher edge borders become.
Another way to visualize it is how much contrast is added at the edges.
Laplacian Sharpen - The “Laplacian Sharpen” method is used to sharpen any detail in an image, however,
because it sharpens any disconnuity, things like noise can also get sharpened. It’s recommended to use a
“Smooth” funcon and/or a “Denoise” funcon prior to using the “Laplacian Sharpen” method to ensure that
the ne details enhanced by this method are not used on items that should not be highlighted. No parameters
are provided for this sharpen method, so its eects will occur as soon as the tool is clicked.
