How to apply a reflection effect to a product in the Product editor. Web App.

Use the Reflection setting to make your product appear as if it is on a shiny surface. It places a faded reflection directly below the object on the layer. For example, in the image below, we used reflection on three shoe images.
​

Three shoes, each with a reflection that makes it look as though the shoe is on a highly reflective surface.


​Note: Reflections are available on foreground layers, with the exception of shape layers. You cannot use reflections on background layers.


Steps (Web App)

To apply a reflection effect:

  1. Open your Product catalog and select the product you want to edit.
    Photoroom opens the product's images in the Product editor.
    ​

  2. Select the image you want to edit.
    ​
    For help with selecting images and layers, see How to select images in the Product editor (Web App).
    ​

  3. Select a foreground layer.

  4. Select the More actions option ( ... ) and then Reflection.

  5. Use the Reflection settings to style the reflection:
    ​

    • Opacity
      Use to control the visibility of the reflection.
      ​

    • Angle
      Use to control the angle (tilt) of the reflection.
      ​

    • Falloff
      Use to control how quickly the reflection fades out.
      ​

    • Position
      Use to control the distance between the reflection and the object being reflected.
      ​

    • Blur
      Use to make the reflection sharper or softer.
      ​

  6. [Optional] To apply the same effect to other images in the batch, use Apply to all or Copy/Paste edits.

  7. [Optional] Use the Product editor to make further changes, such as add text, graphics, or shapes.
