Bevel Alpha


    This effect gives a chiseled and lighted appearance to the alpha boundaries of an image, often giving 2D elements a 3D appearance. (If the layer's alpha channel is completely opaque, the effect is applied to the bounding box of the layer.) The edge created in this effect is somewhat softer than that of the Bevel Edges effect. This effect works especially well for elements with text in the alpha channel.
