Note
The lens you just created
acts like a blue filter lens on a camera. Unlike a camera lens,
however, you can adjust the rate at which this lens allows colors
other than blue and black to show through. Rate values near 0
show more colors; values near 100 show fewer colors.
Note
The Remove Face option
allows you to show a lens' fill only where it covers other objects.
This option is only available for lenses that change the colors
of objects behind them (like Color Limit lenses).
