NAME

plug_in_bump_map - Create an embossing effect using an image as a bump map

SYNOPSIS

plug_in_bump_map (run_mode,image,drawable,bumpmap,azimuth,elevation,depth,xofs,yofs,waterlevel,ambient,compensate,invert,type)

DESCRIPTION

This plug-in uses the algorithm described by John Schlag, "Fast Embossing Effects on Raster Image Data" in Graphics GEMS IV (ISBN 0-12-336155-9). It takes a drawable to be applied as a bump map to another image and produces a nice embossing effect.
