Applying the Tear dynamic plug-in

The Tear dynamic plug-in lets you apply a torn-paper effect to the edge of a selection or layer. You can also control the amount of tearing that the effect produces.

You can tear a little (left) or a lot (right).

You can view only the dynamic layer by hiding the canvas in the Layers panel.

Use a rough paper texture to create a better tear by clicking the Paper selector in the toolbox and choosing a paper texture from the list.

You can use the Revert to Original command in the Layers panel menu to restore a source image to its original condition. For more information, see Modifying and deleting dynamic layers.
