BS_EdgeExtend
Blacksmithv1coreNeeds full inputForge
Overview
Pushes edge colour outward smoothly — as far as you like, up to filling the whole frame. Blacksmith's answer to the dilate-based extends that streak and die after a few dozen pixels. Use before a defocus (so it drags colour, not black), to fill depth-pass holes, or to extend despilled edge colour. Alpha is never touched.
