Adjusting Impasto Depth

You can control the appearance of depth using the Amount, Picture, Shine, and Reflection settings. At any time, you can change these settings to get different texture effects.

Adjustments affect the entire Impasto layer. To change the depth of individual brush strokes, you can vary stylus settings or build up media. Refer to "Controlling the Depth Interaction of a Medium" for more information.

The Amount slider affects the thickness of the entire Impasto layer. It does not affect individual brush strokes, nor does it affect its relationship with other Impasto strokes.

You can adjust the appearance of depth in the entire Impasto layer with the Amount slider.

• Picture controls how much color appears in the image. At its lowest value, all the color is washed out, leaving only the highlights.
• Shine controls how much highlight appears on the surface of strokes. Higher Shine values make the stroke look metallic.
• Reflection maps a clone source image or pattern onto the texture at a variable percentage. Refer to "Working with Reflection Maps" for more information.
