One of the great strengths of Divi is that you don’t have to bother with creating a mock-up of your site, you can jump straight into Divi and start creating.
And the process has just got a whole lot more creative with the latest Divi feature update, which comes with a full range of visual adjustment tools including colour filters, effects and blend modes that can be applied to any image and all Divi modules, rows and sections.
To use these new features, a new options group and a collection of custom controls have been added to all Divi modules, rows and sections that make it easy to make colour adjustments, apply stylistic effects and blend elements together on the page.
Now you can create stunning depth-of-field effects that really bring your pages to life, without having to play around with Photoshop or compromise the integrity of your original image.
And as an added bonus, there is now no need to use super-big transparent PNG images that take forever to load.

The Brand New Filters And Effects – A new options group and a collection of new custom controls have been added to all Divi modules, rows and sections that make it easy to make color adjustments, apply stylistic effects and blend elements together on the page.
Divi’s New Colour Filters Interface
All Divi modules, rows and sections now have a new Filters option group complete with a new set of custom controls.
These controls allow you to adjust colours, apply effects and create blending modes for any element on the page.
These controls have also been added to all module images.
Adjust colours and stylize your page
Everything inside of Divi now has Hue, Saturation, Brightness, Contrast, Invert, Blur, Opacity and Sepia controls that allow you to quickly adjust the appearance of any element.
With these new features you can give your imagination full rein, and the easy to use controls really do invite you to experiment and explore.
Get creative with your images
Every Divi module that contains images now has colour filter controls for each individual image. This means that you can apply colour effects to images without affecting the rest of the module.
With colour filters you can easily apply Instagram-like styles to your images or simply style them to match your design.
Add Stunning depth-of-field effects with Divi’s Blur and Opacity controls
As well as colour filters, Elegant Themes have also added Blur and Opacity controls.
These controls allow you to create stunning depth-of-field effects that really bring your pages to life. And you can do it without making changes to your original image with Photoshop or other image editing software.
That means that as an added bonus, there’s no need to use super-big transparent PNG images that take forever to load.
Create Layered Styles Using Divi’s Blend Modes
And last but not least, as well as colour filters and effects, you can also apply blend modes to any Divi element.
This allows you to create a whole new range of effects by blending layered elements in an unlimited number of creative ways.
