Additional Features

Advanced mode

Advanced mode is a new filter tool. It is also the default mode of the Demoirize plug-in. In advanced mode the filter estimates colors by means of the Quality/Speed slider and the Pattern Size slider.

Often the color moiré is visible by multiple red/green or blue/yellow areas of discoloration. These areas of discoloration are seen as bands or stripes. The larger the band or stripe, the larger the pattern size setting should be.

Pattern size

The best way of finding the optimal pattern size is by setting the Quality/Speed slider to Speed while moving the Pattern Size slider towards Large. While moving the slider the effects of corrections are seen on the screen. Selecting a larger than necessary pattern size will not generally enhance the result.

A circular arrow icon that turns indicates that the Demoirize filter is currently calculating image data.

Quality/Speed

When large areas of moiré stripes and bands are present the Quality/Speed slider should be set towards Quality, at the cost of Speed. Use the Quality setting when details smaller that the selected pattern size should be less affected by the filtering.

Additional Features

Using advanced mode on skin and hair

For skin and hair surfaces the optimal settings for the advanced filter would be to position the Quality/Speed slider at Speed and the Pattern Size slider very close to Small. Please note that large color moiré areas in hair may require a larger pattern size setting.

Using advanced mode on textiles

On textile the optimal settings for the advanced filter would be to position the Quality/Speed slider towards Speed, or in an intermediate position. Then move the Pattern Size slider to the smallest possible setting.

In many cases the masking of unicolored, or nearly unicolored areas, may be carried out less accurately with the advanced filter compared to the Unicolor textiles filter. Since masking depends very much on the type of image, it is recommended to test different masking and filter settings.
