Adjust the following controls for the Noise effect:
Amount Of Noise
Specifies the amount of noise, and therefore the amount of distortion, through random
displacement of the pixels. The range is 0% (no effect) to 100% (the image may not be recognizable).
Noise Type
Randomly changes the red, green, and blue values of the image’s pixels individually when Use Color
Noise is selected. Otherwise, the same value is added to all channels.
Clipping
Determines whether the noise causes pixel colors to wrap around. When the color of a pixel gets as large
as it can, clipping makes it stay at that value. With unclipped noise, the color value wraps around or starts again at
low values. When Clipping is selected, even 100% noise leaves a recognizable image. For a completely randomized
image, turn off Clipping and turn on Color Noise.
Noise Alpha effect
The Noise Alpha effect adds uniform or squared noise to the alpha channel of a source layer.
This effect works with 8-bpc color.
