4.7.1. Overview

This filter blurs the image preserving edges. It is very effective in noise reduction maintaining sharp edges.

It works comparing each pixel to its neighboring pixels and to 1 or 2 pairs of symmetric pixels around the center.

4 symmetric pairs

These options are common to GEGL-based filters. Please refer to Secțiune 2, „Caracteristici obișnuite”.

Radius

Radius, in pixels, of square pixel region. Width and height of this region are radius*2+1:

Pairs

You can select 1 or 2 pairs : higher number preserves more acute features.
