Gaussian Blur shader effect

[ArcadeBliss]

I am trying to do a gaussian blur effect that requires to run the shader twice on the resulting image. Does anyone have a clue how to place the resulting image of an fe.image object that has a shader into another fe.image inorder to run the other shader against it?

I'm not the best to explain shaders.. ideally the shader would run two passes i think or you would combine two separate shaders into one - but that's too complicated for me

Have you tried just doing the first shader on the image, then adding image to a surface and applying the second to the surface? I'm not sure if that would give the same effect, though.

I'll give that a try.  Good idea.

it worked!

I created a surface and gave it a shader.
I created an fe.image in the surface and gave it a shader.

after that it worked like a charm!
