Halftone
Method #
This node applies a half-tone effect, where the image is separated into small circles and resized depending on the brightness in that area.

Blend Mode (Alpha)
Change how the generated effect blends with the parent image alpha.
Tint Colour
Edit the colour of the tint.
Background Colour
Set the background colour outside of the halftone.
Active

Max Point Size
Size of largest points in the effect.
Point Scale
Scale size of all points.
Rotation Randomness
How random the rotation of each point is.
Invert Colour
Toggle inverted colour on or off.
