You can use input boxes to set horizontal (X) and vertical (Y) coordinates of Supernova center. You can also click and drag the supernova center in preview.

Poloměr

This is radius of the Supernova center: the upper limit seems to be unlimited. When you increase the value, you increase the number of central white pixels according to r*r (1, 4, 9, …).

Radius is represented by a horizontal line in preview, with a cross at end. You can click and drag this cross to set radius.

Number of spokes

Počet paprsků supernovy (1-1024). Kqaždý pixel ve středu supernovy vysílá jeden pixel silné paprsky. Tyto paprsky se více méně překrývají, což způsobuje třpytivý efekt při pohybu tímto posuvníkem.

Random hue

Color rays at random. (0-360) value seems to be a range in HSV color circle.

Color

Kliknutím na barevné pole otevřete standardní dialog pro výběr barvy.

You also have a color picker. When it is selected, the mouse pointer goes with a square on image: it's the color sample whose size you can modify in the GEGL operation window under Toolbox.

Hnízdo náhodných čísel

Filter effect is made at random. You can change seed.
