“Fractal trace” filter options

Mandelbrot parameters

X1, X2, Y1, Y2, Depth

These parameters are similar to X/YMIN, X/YMAX and ITER parameters of the Fractal Explorer filter. They allow you to vary fractal spreading and detail depth.

Outside Type

Mapping image to fractal may reveal empty areas. You can select to fill them with Black, White, Transparency or make what disappears on one side reappear on the opposite side with Wrap option.
