Vignette
Darkens (or lightens) the edges of an image with a soft elliptical gradient.
Vignette applies an elliptical falloff from the center to the edges of the image. Negative amount darkens the edges (classic vignette); positive amount brightens them. Size controls how large the ellipse is, and softness controls how gradually the effect transitions.
The center offset lets you move the vignette focus off-center, which is useful for emphasizing a subject that isn’t in the middle of the frame.

Usage Tips
Section titled “Usage Tips”- A subtle vignette (amount -0.2 to -0.4) draws the eye toward the center naturally.
- Use a custom color other than black for creative vignette effects.
- Combine with a centered subject and a tight size for dramatic spotlight focus.
