# Mystical

{% @arcade/embed flowId="cYRp9dpSzlRY5UhbzXOw" url="<https://app.arcade.software/share/cYRp9dpSzlRY5UhbzXOw>" %}

The **Mystical tool** gives your image a dreamy look by softening the luminescence while increasing the contrast and saturation. It can create a fantasy look by increasing contrast and adding a creative glow prioritized in the lighter areas of the image.

#### Standard Settings <a href="#h_01h9qtmgpkda70hf087e0h23ys" id="h_01h9qtmgpkda70hf087e0h23ys"></a>

* **Amount**. This slider adjusts the overall strength of the tool. For a moderate effect and a more realistic image, keep the value of the Amount slider below 40. If the Amount value is 0, the tool is not applied. Move the slider to the right to increase the Amount.
* **Shadows**. This slider adjusts the black point for the darker areas of the image.
* **Smoothness.** This slider controls the smoothness of the Mystical effect. A higher value creates a gentler blend between the affected and unaffected areas of the image.

#### Colorize <a href="#h_01h9qtmgpk567dhkwvh68w1xhq" id="h_01h9qtmgpk567dhkwvh68w1xhq"></a>

* **Saturation**. This slider is a practical way to adjust the color saturation of the Mystical effect.
* **Warmth**. This slider adjusts the Mystical effect’s hue towards the spectrum’s warm end.

**Note:** At a low setting, the Mystical tool will give the image more contrast and can increase color.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://support.skylum.com/editing-tools/creative-tools/mystical.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
