Stylize filter and effect (bottom of menu)


    The Glowing Edges command in the Stylize submenu in the bottom section of both the Filter and Effect menus produces a painted or impressionistic effect on a selection by displacing pixels and by finding and heightening contrast in an image. This command isn't available for documents in CMYK color mode.

    Note: The Glowing Edges effect is raster-based and uses the document's raster effects settings whenever you apply the effect to a vector graphic. (See Specifying raster effects settings.)
