Click the control or press K to activate.

The Spike Spread control, part of the Primary Diffraction Spikes control group, allows you to make the Primary Spikes diverge as the distance from the highlight increases.

Higher Spike Spread values make the Primary Spikes spread more/faster.

Note that with this control turned all the way down the Primary Spikes will stay equally sharp at all distances.
