• Variable: The blur increases toward the edges of the image. This option is faster when
using high blur values.

Amount:
Sets the radius of the blur. Drag the small circle (above the Center onscreen
control) to adjust the amount of the blur in the Canvas.
Swirl:
Sets the quantity and direction of the swirl. Positive and negative values affect the
direction of the swirl.
Center:
Sets the position of the center of the blur. Drag the Center onscreen control to
adjust its value in the Canvas.
Crop:
Sets whether the object is cropped at its original boundaries.
Mix:
Sets the percentage of the original image to be blended with the blurred image.
