At the heart of the Lens
Flare Pro spark is the 'Lens Editor'. The Lens Editor is where you create, modify, load, and save custom lenses and lighting effects.
The interface is broken down into four main parts: the Preview area, the Elements List, the Element Parameters area, and the Load/Save area.

Using flare primitives.
Inside the Lens Editor, you choose a 'Lens Primitive' from a popup menu, then combine those Primitives in any order or quantity.
Each primitive has separate parameter controls
to precisely tweak specific elements to achieve highly customized
effects. Voila! Your lighting effect.
Lens Primitives range from familiar glows and
spikes to Panavision Stripes, Chroma Hoops, and Aperture Reflections.
These are artifacts commonly seen in real lens photography.
