### 7.8.3 Effect Filters/Lightning

Lightning creates a lightning. This effect filter can be used without an active image layer. As a result you will get a group containing vector layers.

The subdialog Lightnings controls the basic look of the lightning: its Position, the Width and the Color.

Parameters defines the exact appearance of the lightning. The settings are quite abstract, therefore you should "play" a bit with them in order to get a feeling for their effects.

Glow and Light control the appearance of the shine of the lightning: the Width, the Intensity and the Color.
