Displacing a Layer

The displacement of each pixel is determined by the color value of the corresponding pixel in the displacement source, which can be another image.
In this lesson:
Create a displacement source to the composite by adding a solid layer with a Fractal Noise operator.
Use the luminance channel of the displacement source to apply a Displace operator to the layer ...
