The Texture Window.

The Texture Window is one of four main interface areas in Backdrop Designer. This palette is all about textures. This window allows you to select a Texture preset and make tons of modifications.

Modify your Texture.

The Texture may look like a flat color; a color with flat texture; or a color with bumpy texture. Once you have selected a Texture, you can open the Edit menu to make changes in a few ways.

Change color value. Make changes to the Texture's color values with the Hue, Saturation, and Lightness sliders.

Blur the texture. The Blur slider allows you to soften the texture, making it appear out of focus or in the background.

Move, scale or rotate. Change the look by using the Transform tools to move, rotate, or scale the Texture.

Mutate the texture. The Mutation Wells and Mutate Level slider will randomize and change the composition of your Texture.

Choose your Texture preset.

The Texture Window allows you to select from hundreds of ready-made patterns. These presets cover a wide range of looks, and their attributes may be changed to create thousands of variations. To open the Texture Preset Manager, click on the orange Load arrow in the Texture Window.

Load a preset.

The Load button is often your starting point when you open up Backdrop Designer. This is because you'll want to find a Texture that will suit your purpose. The plugin will remember the last texture that you used. This is a great feature when you are applying the same Backdrop to different photos in succession.
