Description

Generates a black and white mask based on baked maps and user settings. Similar to Smart Masks in Painter.

This mask is the best way to select any kind of edge based on the curvature. Convex, Concave at any level or contrast can be isolated, providing an excellent shortcut to avoid manually doing this through a Levels node.

Parameters

Inputs

  • Curvature: Grayscale Input
    Baked map used for highlighting edges. Required!
  • Mask (optional): Grayscale Input
    Mask slot used for masking the node’s effects.

Parameters

  • Level: 0.0 - 1.0
    Sets the total amount of edge highlighting for both Convex and Concave.

  • Contrast: 0.0 - 1.0
    Adjusts the contrast of the highlighting for both Convex and Concave.

  • Convex

    • Convex Edges Width: 0.0 - 1.0Sets width of the highlighting for Convex edges. Keep in mind that increasing Softness slightly can lead to thinner edges.
    • Convex Softness: 0.0 - 1.0Set softness of the transition for Convex edges.
    • Convex Intensity: 0.0 - 1.0Sets the maximum intensity of the Edge highlighting for Convex edges. Set to 0 for no highlighting.
  • Concave

    • Concave Edges Width: 0.0 - 1.0Set width of the highlighting for Concave edges. Keep in mind that increasing Softness slightly can lead to thinner edges.
    • Concave Softness: 0.0 - 1.0Set softness of the transition for Concave edges.
    • Concave Intensity: 0.0 - 1.0Set the maximum intensity of the Edge highlighting for Concave edges. Set to 0 for no highlighting.
