Stylize can produce different styles of impressionistic artistic effects. Some filters can emphasize the outline of an image: use colored lines to outline the edges of a color image, and use white lines to outline the edges of a grayscale image.
Find Edge (Find Edge) can emphasize the outline of the image, use colored lines to outline the edges of color images, and use white lines to outline the edges of grayscale images.

Brush Strokes can produce different styles of painting effects using different brush and ink pen contacts. Some filters can add grain, paint, noise, edges, or texture to an image to give it a stipple effect.
Angled Strokes allow you to trace an image diagonally. Lighter areas in the image are drawn with lines in one direction, and darker areas with lines in the opposite direction.
Spatter creates the same effect as airbrush painting.
Sprayed Strokes can produce diagonal spray lines.
Accented Edges (enhanced edges) can enhance the edges of the image. When the edge brightness control is set to a higher value, the enhancement is similar to white chalk; when the brightness setting is set to a lower value, the enhancement is similar to black ink.

Blur can blur the image. This is very useful for retouching images. The principle of blurring is to average the pixel values adjacent to the hard edge area in the image to be blurred to produce a smooth filtering effect.
Motion Blur blurs images in a certain direction (from -360 degrees to +360 degrees) and in a certain intensity (from 1 to 999). The effect of this filter is similar to taking a picture of a moving object with a fixed exposure time.
Gaussian Blur quickly blurs a selection by an adjustable amount. Gaussian refers to the diamond-shaped curve produced when Adobe Photoshop performs a weighted average of pixels. This filter adds low-frequency detail and creates a hazy effect.
Radial Blur blurs the blur caused by moving the camera forward or backward or rotating the camera to create a soft effect. Select Spin to blur along concentric arcs, then specify the rotation angle; select Zoom to blur along radial lines, as if zooming in or out of the image.
Blur More (further blur) can also eliminate noise in the image where there are obvious color changes. The resulting effect is 3 to 4 times stronger than a blur filter.
Smart Blur can finely blur an image. Specifying the radius can determine the range in which the filter can search different pixels for blurring: specifying the domain value can determine how different the pixels are to be eliminated; you can also specify the blur quality in the dialog box; you can also set the mode of the entire selection, or the color transition edge mode.

Sharpen More has a stronger sharpening effect than the sharpening filter.
Sharpen Edges (sharpening edges) can find obvious color transition areas in the image and sharpen them.
Video

Chrome is an image that produces the effect of a polished chrome surface. In a reflective surface, highlights are bright spots and shadows are dark spots.
Graphic Pen creates a sketch effect by using fine, straight lines of ink to trace details in an original image.
Bas Relief (basic convex line) can change the image into an image with a low relief effect. Use the foreground color for dark areas of the image, and the background color for lighter colors.
