S_EtchingGenerates a version of the source clip using two sets of black and white lines of varying thickness to give an 'etching' or 'lithograph' look. Use the Smooth Source parameter to remove some details and make the lines more evenly shaped. Use the Lines Frequency parameter to adjust the density of all lines.In the Sapphire Stylize category.

Blur Mocha:
Default:
0,

-
Mocha Opacity:
Default:
1,
Range:
0 to 1.
Controls the strength of the Mocha mask. Lower values reduce the intensity of the effect.
-
Invert Mocha:
Check-box, Default:
off.
If enabled, the black and white of the Mocha Mask are inverted before applying the effect.
-
Resize Mocha:
Default:
1,
Range:
0 to 2.
Scales the Mocha Mask. 1.0 is the original size.
-
Resize Rel X:
Default:
1,
Range:
0 to 2.
The relative horizontal size of the Mocha Mask.
-
Resize Rel Y:
Default:
1,
Range:
0 to 2.
The relative vertical size of the Mocha Mask.
-
Shift Mocha:
X & Y, Default:
[0 0],
Range:
any.
Offsets the position of the Mocha Mask.
-
Bypass Mocha:
Check-box, Default:
off.
Ignore the Mocha Mask and apply the effect to the entire source clip.
-
Show Mocha Only:
Check-box, Default:
off.
Bypass the effect and show the Mocha Mask itself.
-
Combine Masks:
Popup menu, Default: Union
.
Determines how to combine the Mocha Mask and Input Mask when both are supplied to the effect.
-
Union:
Uses the area covered by both masks together.
- Intersect: Uses the area that overlaps between the two masks.
- Mocha Only: Ignore the Input Mask and only use the Mocha Mask.
- Intersect: Uses the area that overlaps between the two masks.
-
Union:
Uses the area covered by both masks together.
-
Lines Frequency:
Default:
50,
Range:
0 or greater.
The frequency of the etched lines. Increase for a finer line pattern, decrease for fewer lines.
-
Lines1 Frequency:
Default:
1,
Range:
0 or greater.
Scales the frequency of the first set of etched lines. Increase for a finer line pattern, decrease for fewer lines.
-
Lines2 Frequency:
Default:
1,
Range:
0 or greater.
Scales the frequency of the second set of etched lines.
-
Lines Angle:
Default:
0,
Range:
any.
Rotation of the etched lines pattern in counter-clockwise degrees.
-
Lines1 Angle:
Default:
30,
Range:
any.
The relative angle of the first set of etched lines in counter-clockwise degrees.
-
Lines2 Angle:
Default:
-20,
Range:
any.
The relative angle of the second set of etched lines in counter-clockwise degrees.
-
Lines Shift:
X & Y, Default:
[0 0],
Range:
any.
Shifts the pattern of lines. This location will also be the center of rotation when the line angle parameters are adjusted.
-
Lines Sharpness:
Default:
4,
Range:
0 or greater.
The sharpness of the etched lines. Decrease for softer edges.
-
Lines Add Width:
Default:
0,
Range:
any.
Increase for thicker lines.
-
Wave Amp:
Default:
0.1,
Range:
0 or greater.
The amplitude of the waviness of the sets of etched lines.
-
Wave Frequency:
Default:
2,
Range:
0 or greater.
The frequency of the waviness of the etched lines. Increase for more waves.
-
Warp Amp:
Default:
0.04,
Range:
any.
The amount the output is warped using the source brightness.
-
Warp Smooth:
Default:
0.4,
Range:
0 or greater.
The smoothness of the warping. This has no effect if Warp Amp is 0.
-
Smooth Source:
Default:
0,
Range:
0 or greater.
If positive, the source is blurred by this amount before the etching is applied.
-
Color1:
Default rgb:
[1 1 1].
The 'brighter' color of the lines pattern.
-
Color0:
Default rgb:
[0 0 0].
The 'darker' color of the lines pattern.
-
Edges Scale:
Default:
0.5,
Range:
0 or greater.
Adjusts the amount of source edges to be included in the result. If positive, edges in the source image are found and added to the etching pattern.
-
Edges Threshold:
Default:
0.3,
Range:
0 or greater.
Determines which edges are included in the result. Increase to remove minor edges and speckles. This has no effect unless Edges Scale is positive.
-
Edges Width:
Default:
0,
Range:
0 or greater.
The width of the edges added to the result. Increase for wider edges. This has no effect unless Edges Scale is positive.
-
Edges Sharpness:
Default:

Range:
0 or greater.
Increase for sharper edges, decrease for softer edges. This has no effect unless Edges Scale is positive.
-
Mask Use:
Popup menu, Default: Luma
.
Determines how the Mask input channels are used to make a monochrome mask.
-
Luma:
the luminance of the RGB channels is used.
- Alpha: only the Alpha channel is used, or if there is no valid Alpha channel the Red channel is used.
- Alpha: only the Alpha channel is used, or if there is no valid Alpha channel the Red channel is used.
-
Luma:
the luminance of the RGB channels is used.
-
Blur Mask:
Default:
0.05,

-
Invert Mask:
Check-box, Default:
off.
If on, inverts the mask input so the effect is applied to areas where the Mask is black instead of white. This has no effect unless the Mask input is provided.
