Users can pick an image in the Texturizer dialog; it is stored as relief heights and survives save/open like Glass textures.

Squashed from #2533 onto #2525 (Smudge Stick, Sponge, Watercolor): both sets in PIXEL_EFFECTS (45), the catalogs and the docs, whose counts now read 45/57.
Eight raster effects on the pixel-filter pipeline
(vectorcraft_effects::pixel::brushstrokes), under a new Effect › Brush
Strokes submenu between Blur and Distort in the Raster Effects section:
- Accented Edges (edgeWidth pt 1..14, default 2; edgeBrightness 0..50,
38; smoothness 1..15, 5): the edges of the softened object painted
towards white chalk at high brightness or black ink at low brightness;
Smoothness also leaves the faint edges out. The shape stays as it was.
- Angled Strokes (directionBalance 0..100, 50; strokeLength pt 3..50, 15;
sharpness 0..10, 3): light areas in right diagonal strokes, dark areas
in left diagonal ones; 0 makes every stroke a left diagonal, 100 every
stroke a right diagonal. Sharpness brings detail and bristles back.
- Crosshatch (strokeLength pt 3..50, 9; sharpness 0..20, 6; strength
1..3, 1): the detail kept under pencil hatching along both diagonals,
Strength passes of it, the edges roughened.
- Dark Strokes (balance 0..10, 5; blackIntensity 0..10, 6;
whiteIntensity 0..10, 2): short strokes towards black in the dark
areas, long strokes towards white in the light areas.
- Ink Outlines (strokeLength pt 1..50, 4; darkIntensity 0..50, 20;
lightIntensity 0..50, 10): black outlines over the edges, ink hatching
in the shadows, shadows darkened and highlights lightened.
- Spatter (sprayRadius pt 0..25, 10; smoothness 1..15, 5): each pixel
shifted by noise up to 0.4 x the radius; Smoothness makes the grains
larger and smoother.
- Sprayed Strokes (strokeLength pt 0..20, 12; sprayRadius pt 0..25, 7;
strokeDirection Right Diagonal, Horizontal, Left Diagonal or Vertical):
strokes along the direction, scattered by up to 0.3 x the radius.
- Sumi-e (strokeWidth pt 3..15, 10; strokePressure 0..15, 2; contrast
0..40, 16): wet strokes, ink bleeding from the darks along paper
fibres, more ink with pressure and an S-curve contrast for rich blacks.
It works in value only: hues and saturation stay, and so does the
object's shape (no fringe in the transparency).
A stroke averages the colour along a segment through the pixel (16
samples at most, the art softened first when they lie more than a pixel
apart); strokes lie in rows around the object's centre, each row
starting at random and each stroke shifted along itself, with streaked
noise for the bristles. Everything is in document space, so the effects
look the same at any zoom or resolution, move with the object and draw
the same every time; outsets and reaches are exact. On a 2000 x 2000
raster in release the slowest settings take 0.3-2.0 s (Crosshatch at
50 pt with 3 passes the most).
Shared helpers instead of copies: edges::sobel (Glowing Edges now uses
it, unchanged), distort::displace and texture::Tones are pub(super).
Catalogue rows with parameter docs, menu entries, Sprayed Strokes'
direction dropdown, translations (de, es, fr, it, ja, ru, uk, zh-hans,
zh-hant; menu labels in cs and pt-br), tests (parameters and clamping,
outsets and reaches, each filter and option showing, chalk and ink on
the edges only, shadows and rich blacks, Sumi-e keeping the shape and
hues, hatching keeping the tone, strokes smearing along their direction,
Spatter's radius, resolution and move invariance, canvas, multithreaded,
PDF and SVG, the command sweep with junk parameters, the menu) and
ROADMAP.

Three raster effects on the pixel-filter pipeline
(vectorcraft_effects::pixel::distort), under a new Effect › Distort
submenu between Blur and Pixelate in the Raster Effects section (the
vector Distort & Transform stays its own submenu):
- Diffuse Glow (graininess 0..10, default 6; glowAmount 0..20, 10;
clearAmount 0..20, 15): the highlights, softened over 2 points, glow
white from the brightness Clear Amount leaves clear; white grain as
dense as Graininess says is sprinkled over the object, thicker in the
glow. Transparency stays as it was.
- Glass (distortion 0..20, 5; smoothness 1..15, 3; texture Blocks,
Canvas, Frosted or Tiny Lens, default Frosted; scaling % 50..200, 100;
invert): the object seen through a glass surface; each pixel takes the
colour the surface's slope bends it to, sampled between pixels. Slopes
are taken over a span Smoothness widens. The surfaces are made in code
(Canvas is Texturizer's weave); Load Texture is left out.
- Ocean Ripple (rippleSize 1..15, 9; rippleMagnitude 0..20, 9): smooth
noise ripples about Ripple Size + 2 points across shift the object by
up to 0.03 x magnitude x their size.
The shifts are capped, so the effects' outsets and reaches are exact,
and every surface lies in document space around the object's centre:
the same at any zoom or resolution, moving with the object, identical
on every redraw.
Catalogue rows with parameter docs, menu entries, the Texture dropdown,
translations (and German's missing Canvas), tests (parameters and
clamping, outsets, each texture and Invert, the ripples' reach, the glow
and its grain, resolution and move invariance, canvas, multithreaded,
PDF and SVG, the command sweep with junk parameters, the menu) and
ROADMAP.

Six raster effects on the pixel-filter pipeline
(vectorcraft_effects::pixel::texture), under a new Effect › Texture
submenu between Sharpen and Video in the Raster Effects section:
- Craquelure (crackSpacing pt 2..100, default 15; crackDepth 0..10, 6;
crackBrightness 0..10, 9): the object on relief plaster that cracks into
plates about Crack Spacing apart (a Voronoi network over jittered points)
and along the quarter, half and three-quarter contours of its softened
tones. Depth sets how dark and wide the cracks are and how high the
plates' bevels and the tones stand (lit from the top left); Brightness
how brightly the surface is lit.
- Grain (intensity 0..100, 40; contrast 0..100, 50 = unchanged; grainType
Regular, Soft, Sprinkles, Clumped, Contrasty, Enlarged, Stippled,
Horizontal, Vertical, Speckle; default Regular): coloured 1-point grains,
smooth ones, clumps, 2-point grains, streaks along rows or columns, dark
specks; Sprinkles and Stippled use the background colour, white.
- Mosaic Tiles (tileSize pt 2..100, 12; groutWidth 1..15, 3; lightenGrout
0..10, 9): irregular tiles bevelled at their edges, with sunken grout half
a point wide per step, lightened as Lighten Grout says.
- Patchwork (squareSize pt 0..10, 4; relief 0..25, 8): squares filled with
the colour around their centres, raised to heights that follow the
highlights and shadows, a little more or less at random.
- Stained Glass (cellSize pt 2..50, 10; borderThickness 1..20, 4;
lightIntensity 0..10, 3): single-coloured panes leaded in the foreground
colour (black, half a point per step), lit from behind at the object's
centre and fading out towards its corners (PixelSpace gains `extent`).
- Texturizer (texture Brick, Burlap, Canvas, Sandstone, default Canvas;
scaling % 50..200, 100; relief 0..50, 4; lightDirection Bottom, Bottom
Left, Left, Top Left, Top, Top Right, Right, Bottom Right, default Top;
invert): the object on a surface in relief. The four surfaces are height
fields generated in code (bricks in stretcher bond, plain weaves coarse
and fine, octaves of smooth noise); no image files. Load Texture is left
out.
Every pattern lies in document space around the object's centre, so the
result is the same at any zoom or raster resolution, moves with the object
and is identical on every redraw (hash noise of cell indices); slopes are
taken in document units. Work per pixel is bounded (a 5 x 5 cell search,
four or five height samples, box blurs); parameters are clamped to their
ranges and finite-checked. The Pixelate helpers (Place, the cell search,
the softened colours) are shared, Mezzotint uses the shared smooth noise,
and the effect dialogs' dropdowns translate their labels in an "effect"
context where the plain word means something else (Soft, Horizontal and
Vertical are type settings in Japanese and Chinese).
Catalogue rows with parameter docs, outsets and reaches, menu entries,
dropdowns (Grain Type, Texture, Light Direction), translations, tests
(parameters and clamping, cracks and contours, ten distinct grains, tiles
and grout, squares in relief, leaded panes and the centre light, the
textures lit and inverted, the same at twice the resolution and when
moved, canvas, multithreaded, PDF and SVG, the command sweep with junk
parameters, the dialogs and the menu) and ROADMAP.
