Say you're working with something trying to get an effect, so you apply a guassian blur. Say you set it to 2.0. Then say you do it again and you like that end result. Now you want to apply this same effect to other layers. Can you simply blur them to 4.0, or do you have to do the double stage of blurring every time?
I use it when screwing around for camo effects, wear, tear, etc. It's come up recently and I was wondering if I could double the value and halve the steps, or what?
