How was Camera Raw opened, which of the following ways was used?

A. In Adobe Bridge, select an image, then choose File > Open in Camera Raw.

B. In Photoshop, choose File > Open (or File > Open as Smart Object), and open a raw file.

C. In Photoshop, select a layer, then choose Filter > Camera Raw Filter. Or, double-click a Camera Raw Smart Object layer.

 

A and B should show three buttons: Cancel, Done, Open. This is because Camera Raw opened an independent file, so the Open button can send it on to Photoshop as a new open document.

 

C should show only Cancel and OK. It will not offer an Open button for Photoshop, because what’s open in Camera Raw is already a layer in a Photoshop document. Click OK to return to the Photoshop document containing that layer.
