Color

Clicking on this button brings up the color selector dialog that allows you to choose the border color.

Here you can set the thickness of the fuzzy border, in pixels. Maximum is 300 pixels, regardless of the image width or height.

Blur border

If checked, the border will be blurred. The example below shows the effect of blurring:

Granularity

The border's granularity is almost the size of pixel blocks spread to create the effect of a jagged and fuzzy border.

Shadow weight

If Add shadow is checked, you may set the shadow opacity here. Defaults to 100% (full opacity).

Work on copy

If checked, the filter creates a new window containing a copy of the image with the filter applied. The original image remains unchanged.

Flatten image

If unchecked, the filter keeps the additional layers it used to create the border and the shadow (if demanded). Default is to merge down all layers.
