Quick Blend

The Quick Blend wizard helps you to create edge blending for groups of two surfaces or more

If the surfaces overlap is set, the wizard calculates the blending automatically and sets the corresponding edge blending parameters for all surfaces

Afterwards you only have to bring your Blending to perfection and do fine adjustment

Example set-up: three surfaces on a canvas - each overlaps the next one. Final result should be an edge blending for three projectors to have an continous single projection.

1.Go to main menu, select "Window" and open a new Quick Blend editor

 

 

2.Select your canvas in the Quick Blend editor

3.Select if you want to combine a horizontal or a vertical blend group
If there are multiple surfaces on your canvas, QuickBlend creates groups for every two neighboring surfaces.
 

 

 

4.Adjust the canvas offset for surfaces to finally define the overlap.
By default the overlap that was set before for each surface is taken into account.
As a result of the fine adjustment the overlap should correspond to the overlap of the projectors.
 
Use the slider to influence the canvas offset of all surfaces of your group.
Use first value field to set the offset of the first surface of your group.
Use second value field to set the offset of the second surface of your group.
 

 
 

5.Select "Auto Blend Group" to blend a group
Repeat the steps for all available horizontal groups

6.Select "Auto Blend All" to blend all available surfaces

7.Do fine adjustments for blending with the help of Quick Blend parameters

Fine tune your blending with parameters for amount, start, gamma and luminance
