a textured window film, including:
a plurality of light-transmissive layers including:
a vinyl film layer,
a patterned layer formed on a top surface of the vinyl film layer, the patterned layer forming discrete bumps that cover at least some areas of the top surface of the vinyl film layer, wherein the discrete bumps have different sizes, shapes, or spacing to produce different prismatic refraction effects and are grouped based on size or shape into at least a first area having a first prismatic characteristic and a second area having a second prismatic characteristic that is different than the first prismatic characteristic; and
an additional layer disposed over the discrete bumps and over the uncovered areas of the top surface of the vinyl film layer.
