  5. Click “+” (Add blur) in the top left corner

  6. Add blur to the area needed - You can adjust the size & shape of your blur mask as well as adding additional points, please see tips below!

  7. Click “Save” once you’re happy with the changes you have made

  8. Click “Save” again or “Discard”

    Note: Edits will be instantly displayed in the preview, but reprocessing may take 5-45 minutes, depending on the number of panoramas you have applied blur masks to.

Blur tips

  • You can adjust the blur mask size & shape (change corners from sharp to round):

    Right click on the mouse and change the corner to as round as you want it to be. You can apply a different % of roundness to each corner or apply the same to all.

  • You can add extra points to reshape the blur mask if needed (4 points added by default): Click anywhere on the outline of the shape to add an extra point.

  • You can delete points from the blur mask: Right click on the point and choose “Delete”

  • You can adjust blur intensity – it will be applied to all your blur masks on the still photo you have selected.

  • Move the blur you’ve added to a different part of a photo: Select the blur (left click) and drag it.

  • You can add as many blurs as required!

  • You can delete a blur mask: Select the blur you want to delete from the list and click the "Bin icon"
