problem with filters

Community Beginner ,
Jun 20, 2020 Jun 20, 2020

Hello,

I am a beginner in Photoshop.

I was trying to use the sharpen filter on an image but by selecting sharpen, I can see it has an effect on the image however I didn't get any panel for adjusting the effect...How can i get this panel?

Thanks in advance,

Evahawa

Hi

There is no options for the Sharpen Filter, it's a one hit wonder, you could use the Smart Shapen option which gives you a panel to make adjustments. Convert your image to a smart object first, that way you can adjust the sharpen affect later if required

Right click on the layer and select convert to smart object

Double click smart sharpen to open the options again

Thanks a lot Ged,

I will try this.

The thing is that I was following a YouTube tutorial in which the expert was showing this sharpen filter on a normal image (not smart object), this video has been done in 2017, do you think at this time, it was possible to get a sharpen adjustment panel? Now, not anymore (I am having Photoshop CC 2018).

Kind regards,

Evahawa

You don't have to use a smart object, it just means you can edit the effect later if you want, without a smart object once you make the adjustment there's no going back, do you have a link to the video and why CC2018 the most recent version is 2020

Sure, here is the link, please see at 34:52 exactly (it is in French but by just following the video, you will get it) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1eEgTCj9nCI

 I was not aware of version 2020, how does it work to update it?

Kind regards,

Evahawa

It's the unsharp mask filter that he's using with the layer converted to a smart object, the highlighted in green indicates a smart object

Got it ! I have the panel same as him...

As I am working in English in my Photoshop, I thought that "Accentuation" is "Sharpen" in English...As I am trying to learn learn Photoshop vocabulary in the two langages, sometimes, this kind of problem happens.

However, in his video, he is working on a jpg image which is not converted into a smart object as well as a psd image which is converted in a smart object and he is showing us the difference between the two, anyway, you resolved my problem, thank you very much...

 

What about updating my Photoshop version? Shall I do that through the Creative Cloud?

 

Kind regards,

Evahawa

Go into the CC app and go to Help > Check for Updates

"Accentuation" is "Unsharp Mask" - a different way of sharpening

Thanks Davescm! 

Yes, got it 🙂 

As I am trying to learn Photoshop in both French and English, is there a kind of French-English glossary I can find somewhere?

Kind regards,

Evahawa

I don't know of a current CC translation but I found this older one on line. Many of the menu equivalents will be the same so it should give a starting point.

Hi

One thing that hasn't been said yet is that Unsharp Mask uses Gaussian blur and the newer Smart Sharpen is set by default to Lens Blur (but gives you a choice).
