Add Special Effects to a Photo


Select Photo from the Open Files Window

From within PhotoSuite, choose the photo from the Open Files window at the bottom of the screen that you would like to add a special effect to and bring it up in the Canvas window.

Select Special Effects

After your photo is in the Canvas window, select the Special Effects button from the Enhance window in the tasks pane to bring up the Special Effects window.

Select Effect

After the Special Effects window opens, choose what type of effect you would like to apply from the drop-down menu at the top of the window, or scroll through all the effects shown to decide which one you would like.

Show Effect Preview

Click on the effect you would like to use and make sure that the Show Preview box is checked. This allows you to preview what the picture will look like after the effect is applied.

Adjust Effect Settings

Depending on the effect you choose, there are different settings. You can adjust these settings to your specifications while previewing the photo to make sure you have just the look you want.

Apply Effect

When you are finished, click Apply Effect to finalize the effect.

Tip

You can revert to the last saved version of your photo at any time by clicking on the File drop-down menu and selecting Revert to Last Saved. This removes any changes you have not saved, and you can start over.
