Pinch 1.4 Plugin for Adobe Photoshop | 6 MB
Pinch is a plugin for Adobe Photoshop that applies a compressional distortion. Pinch comes with lots of options for optimal tweaking. Both horizontal and vertical pinching can be applied uniformly or independently, out-of-bounds coloring can be modified, automatic image scaling compensation can be enabled, independent color channels toggled and of course, powerful interpolation options including nearest neighbor, bisquare, bicosine, bilinear and bicubic for ultra-smooth antialiased results.
Pinch supports both 8 bits / channel and 16 bits / channel color modes for professional workflows.
Horiz / Vert: Controls the amount of pinch distortion introduced in both the horizontal and vertical axes respectively.
Color out-of-range: Pixels that are grabbed from outside the image boundaries are colored using the selected color.
Out-of-range color: This color specifies the out-of-range color.
Lock Vert to Horiz: Locks the vertical slider to the horizontal for proportional pinch distortion.
Fit: Applies scaling when horiz or vert are less than 0 to fit image within preview.
Toggles which color channels to output.
Interpolation: Applies pixel interpolation for smooth antialiasing. Options include nearest neighbor, bisquare, bicosine, bilinear and bicubic. Bicubic is the best but takes the longest to compute.
