Hand tracing features (2/3) -



  • Story template; “As a [persona], I [want to], [so that].”

    Story
    As a hand tracing artist I would like an image effect that greatly simplifies and combines selected features from several image effects to optimize a reference image for hand tracing.

    Description
    Simplicity is key. Users needing the advanced options for blur and find edges can manually create them as individual image effects. This effect is for quick and effective enhancement of a reference image. Thus:

    Acceptance criterias

    • A new image effect is added called Image tracing filter
    • The image effect has these four groups of options that can be enabled individually: brightness and contrast, blur, invert color and find edges
    • Find edges has one option only: size
    • Blur uses gaussian blur and has one option only: amount
    • Brightness & contrast has two option: brightness and contrast
    • Invert color has no options
    • Unless it makes sense to alter them for this image effect, all ‘hidden’ parameters use defaults

    @Ingolf I add this to the backlog. Most of image filters exists, combining into one filter can be done.
    The "Find Edges" part can be a bit of a problem in terms of performance.

    Question: when combining blur with find edges into a single filter, which one should be first?

    Find Edges I guess

    OK. But then blur will smooth the found edges out.

    Yep - intended. The find edges makes some very rough edges on photos.
