The Texture Window

Introduction

The Texture window holds both the Unsharp Mask filter and the
FlexTouch filter.
Unsharp Mask Filter
The Unsharp Mask filter applies an algorithm that increases contrast
along sharply defined edges.
Unsharp masking has the potential to both improve and degrade your
image - it makes the makes the image look sharper, but can also bring out
noise or graininess. Most typically, noise will appear first in the dark areas
of the image.
FlexTouch Filter
For scanner use only!
Preview
Preview your settings using the Detail window. When using the Unsharp
Mask filter it is recommended to use at least two detail previews so that
you can compare the sharpening effect in two different areas of your
image - use one to check for enough sharpness in the bright or midtone
areas and another to check for noise resulting from too much sharpness in
the shadow areas. See "The Detail Window" on page 105 for information
about how to use the Detail window.
