If you open the Smart Object for editing, is the glow cut off?

Hello everyone,

After some trial and error, I've somewhat found a workaround. Here’s what I did:

1. Remove the effects from the image once I’ve copied them.
2. Use a brush with a similar color to the glow and set it to 1% opacity.
3. Brush the general area where the glow is getting cut off.
4. Merge the two images by highlighting them both and converting them into a single smart object, and reapply the effects.
   
   

It’s a bit messy, but it works. I’ll keep this post up for the next 24 hours in case someone has a better solution. If not, I’ll mark it as solved. Thank you!
