Pinch

Use Pinch to make your image appear squeezed either inward or outward from the defined center point.

Amount

Controls the severity of the distortion. Positive numbers pull the image inside the cone, making it appear to recede. Negative values stretch the image over the cone, moving the center point closer to your point of view.

Scale

Controls the scale at which the pinching occurs. If you think of a layer as a sheet of paper, the scale is the difference between wrapping the sheet of paper around a basketball compared to wrapping it around a baseball. Wrapping the paper around a basketball is like applying a negative pinch with a high scale value. Wrapping it around the baseball is like applying a negative pinch with a low scale value.

Aspect

Modifies the ratio of horizontal to vertical distortion. Positive values make the horizontal dominate, while negative numbers favor vertical distortions.

Center

Determines the point around which the image is distorted. You can use the Set Position button to set the center.

Resize Image

Extends the effect past the edge of the layer.
