-
Posterize Smooth:
Default:
0.1,
Range:
0 to 1.
Amount to smooth the edges between color regions when posterizing. Increase this value to reduce aliasing between the colored areas. If set to 1, the areas will be completely smoothed together and no posterize effect will occur.
-
Posterize Phase:
Default:
0,
Range:
any.
Amount to shift color boundaries when posterizing. Adjust this to fine-tune the location of the edges between the color regions. A phase of 1 is equivalent to 0.
