Question

Easier and faster workflow for neural filters - batch processing

Hi!

I’m running through the edits of a batch of 35 studio photos with three subjects. When I was looking for an easy way to slightly retouch the subjects, I found that I could make this work quite easily in neural filters with a combination of slides in the ‘skin smoothing’ and ‘smart portraits’ functions.

While working with the neural filters however, I realized that the tab button to toggle to the next slider (I prefer prompting these with the key pad, especially for batch work) does not work in neural filters. Besides that, I can’t select multiple faces at once. This means I have to manually put in 5 prompts divided over two options and do this for each of the three faces individually, while the prompts are equal between the subjects.

Also, when using any other feature, like a gaussian blur, option+command+f copies the same feature into a different opened file. I’d love for it to be possible to do this with the neural filters! AI should be smart enough to recognize the same faces in a different project.

So, my suggestions/feedback in short:

  • I’d love to be able to toggle within neural filters with the tab button!
  • Can we get the option to select multiple subjects at the same time in neural filters?
  • Could there be a solution that allows for a batch process of the same neural filter between multiple Photoshop files?

The above would make a massive difference, since I’ve now had to put the same prompt in for 115 times over 35 photos. With the above featured, it would have been as easy as prompting only once.

Thank you!
