Description Alex 2018-05-24 16:06:26 UTC
Contour layer style is missing, message is "not implemented". There is other working "stroke" layer effect that may do same thing (not sure about it). Maybe both can be combined?

Yes, it hasn't been implemented... It's been on the todo for a long time.
Comment 2 Tiar 2020-04-03 00:06:45 UTC
There are greyed out "contour" comboboxes in quite a few layer styles, so I'm merging this bug report with bug 411264 to have it in one place.

Until this has been completed I will not use Krista and have done what I
said I would. I have installed and have been using Photoshop CS2 to allow
the use of the blending options.

Stroke Selection is implemented. The contour layer effect is accomplished by selecting the components to outline with a stroke. To implement an outer outline, the user overlays a copy of the selection.

The implementation as a layer style would be to select opaque pixels within a layer to outline with a stroke. A threshold of opacity could be configured. The user then selects between "stroke shape," "stoke selection," or a hypothetical, I argue redundant, "stoke layer." The option to select opaque pixels is defined, but needs to be intersected onto a refined selection. The general selection includes edge cases as boundaries to outline.

I previously did not see the "contour" comboboxes in my workflow when updating the bug.
