Live Gaussian Blur Missing

Report · Aug 22, 2023

Live Gaussian Blur is missing from latest builds of v25 Beta Photoshop. If I downgrade to v24.7 it is there.

Running Mac OS v13.5.1

I noticed that I have the same problem, on Mac.

Hi all, Live Gaussian Blur and Live Canvas were removed from Ps beta. There is no more information on it at this time but it will not be in the app moving forward.

I used that constantly! I've been waiting for that for years. Please tell me how to get this same effect of being able to blur the background without the main subject bleeding into the blur even if only the background is selected.

Can't say that I miss it. I have an 2015 iMac and I often work with very large images. I'd sometimes select Live Gaussian Blur by accident when I only wanted Gaussian Blur and it would take a good three to four minutes to back out of it while it updated. I prefer Field Blur in the Blur Gallery. I duplicate the layer first in case I don't like the results, but Field Blur gives me complete control over the entire image. It still takes awhile to update when I'm working on large images, but I much prefer it over Live Gaussian Blur even if it was still available.

Thanks! I will give it a try.

Updated Mac Os to v13.5.1 yesterday, running v25 Beta Photoshop. After Mac Os updated I got a prompt to once again update Photoshop Beta v25 was already installed after which Live Gaussian Blur has disappeared from the filters section.

I tried rolling back to v24.7 (Beta) and it's still present on that version.

Anyone else experie

I am running on a Macbook with a M1 chip on Ventura 13.4.1 and 16Gb of memory and v24.7 of Photoshop Beta.

If I open a CR3 file and go direct to Live Guassian Blur my image is covered in pink as per the screenshot

I get the same on a jpg but to a lesser extent - but still not usable

On another jpg I got lots of pink

Not sure what else youn need to know

Hi @Lywood5D24 does this happen to all files or just this one?

It may help if we could see your Photoshop System Info. Launch Photoshop, and select Help >System Info...and copy/paste the text in a reply.

Thank you for your sysinfo. Does this happen to other files or just this one? Have you tried without your Topaz plugins enabled?

It happens to all files.
My husband is using an iMac on Monteray 12.6.7 and he does NOT have the same issue.
We both have some topaz filters active.

Ok @Lywood5D24,

Try resetting Prefs for the Beta:

/Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/ Photoshop Beta Settings (Mac Ventura)

/Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/Adobe\ Photoshop\ \(Beta\)\ Settings (Mac)
C:\Users\user name\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop (Beta)\Adobe Photoshop (Beta) Settings )Win)

Launch BETA Photoshop While Pressing The Keyboard Shortcut

With Photoshop closed, press and hold Shift+Ctrl+Alt (Win) / Shift+Command+Option (Mac) on your keyboard and then Launch Photoshop the way you normally would.

Tried resetting preferences and it made no difference

@Lywood5D24 could you share a file that this is happeing to with the team? You can send it to shubert@adobe.com

Report · Jul 11, 2023

Sample file sent - if you need some more just let me mknow. I have sent a jpg as it is smaller but it also happens with .cr3 files.

Report · Jul 11, 2023

Thank you, testing here and no pink issue is showing. This is leading us to think it might be hardware releated since the other iMac you listed does not show this issue. Could you share a .psd file that you open, use LGB so the pink issue shows, then save the .psd and share that with us?

Report · Jul 11, 2023

I have tried to send a psd file showing an exra layer with the pink on it but it is too large a file for email. Is there a way to add it on here?

Link to a dropbox file given to Cory so he can look at a PSD file

Report · Jul 11, 2023

Thank you for your patience as we try to recreate your issue. At this time, since we can't reproduce this and no other customer has posted this issue as well as the fact that your other iMac does NOT have this issue, it would appear that something is not correct with your M1.

If we recieve more posts about this issue we would be happy to dig in further, but at this time it does not appear to be a bug.

Same problem here. Mac mini M1 2020 16 GB. Ventura 13.4.1. Photoshop 24.7 m.2245

For me the problem is with any file bigger than 12 mpx and 16 bits. With 8 bits files the filter works as expected.

Thanks!

Report · Jul 23, 2023

I have tried a file smaller than 12 mpx and 16 bits and I still get some pink dots on my image. If I change it to 8bit all seems to be OK on a file less that 12mpx.

If I try a large file, greater than 12mpx, and change it to 8bits per channel then the live blur works OK.

Not sure why changing to 8 bit shoudl help but it does seem to - back to the developers to take another look I hope

I have found a huge bug using live gaussian blur
when I use it an hit ok, photoshop working but none of tools works you cant select anything or brush anything nothnig works
im on latest beta

Report · Jun 29, 2023

Came here looking for anyone else with issues. Live Gaussian blur has never worked properly for me, but as of latest update it's completely unusable and bricks my computer to the point where I have to force reboot after 30+ mins of it being stuck and mouse disappearing, then whichever file I was working on will reopen as just solid green sometimes with pink lines through it. I learnt my lesson not to attempt using it with anything important but I've just spent the past few hours trying to get it to work and my computer freezing then taking forever to get going again. I have a MacBook Pro with highest possible ram and specs specifically so I could run photoshop since my last one could not handle it well, but I think it's an adobe issue since it can run other heavy programs without blinking. So many tools in ps lag and crash but live Gaussian blur is particularly bad. I also don't know if this was ever an option but in the past the few times I got the tool to semi work it wouldn't let me 'brush on' only erase automatically applied blur.
