Understanding selective focus effect
Selective focus retains detail in a chosen region and softens surrounding areas.
Match the shape of the sharp region to the subject rather than using an arbitrary stripe.
A practical workflow
- Choose the required source files, if any. Files are handled as stated in the workspace privacy label.
- Set the available controls and apply the operation.
- Compare the actual output, check its dimensions and download the generated file.
Decisions and limitations
- Strength (%)
- Radius or pattern size (pixels)
- Center from left (%)
- Center from top (%)
16 megapixels maximum. Artistic treatments are algorithmic approximations with adjustable settings. Exported PNGs are flattened. For two-image operations, the second image must match the first image dimensions.

Focal Depth Blur
Focal depth blur separates a sharp subject from progressively softened distance planes. Check depth transitions near hair, branches and transparent objects.
Questions about this task
Where do I use the current tool?
Apply a deterministic image treatment to your uploaded pixels. These filters do not use an AI service.
What should I check for selective focus effect?
Match the shape of the sharp region to the subject rather than using an arbitrary stripe.
Which settings and formats are confirmed?
PNG. 16 megapixels maximum. Artistic treatments are algorithmic approximations with adjustable settings. Exported PNGs are flattened. For two-image operations, the second image must match the first image dimensions.
