I am not trilled by the idea of Gaussian and Directional Blur going legacy.

The new Gaussian blur does not have horizontal or vertical setting. The Angle in the new one is only active when aberration is set. But still does not match the legacy one.

Directional blur has gone from effect to transition, which does not cut it.

@Ann Bens we are in the process of updating our aging catalog of effects with the more modern and performant Film Impact variants.  We have evaluated all out effects one by one and when there is a Film Impact effect that can do the same thing as an old Adobe effect, we are putting our old one in Legacy and making versions with the same effect but based on the Film Impact version.  As much as possible these should yield the same result as before.  But if you really need the old effect, or if it's used in old projects, its there for you in Legacy.  This is just the beginning; there will be more reorganization. I hope this helps.

@Francis-Crossman17221443,

I understand that this is a growing pain, but it is confusing. Is there a post addressing this? I'm now in Build 18. As Ann says, in Effect Controls, there is a Gaussian Blur and Gaussian Blur (Legacy). The name "Film Impact" (and its prefix/abbreviation used in release 25.5, "FI") have been removed entirely from the Effects panel listing. If you apply the non-legacy (where there is a legacy), I t hink you get the FI version, with its new controls. Are the defaults the same as applying the effects/transition from the FI dashboard?

 

For each change, we'll have the same question staff considered: is there a setting that will do what legacy does? I tried a bit with Gaussian blur. Compare FI Gaussian with angle 90, amount 20, thickness zero to Legacy horizontal, amount 60.

 

This will take some adjustment!

 

Stan

    The new Gaussian blur does not have repeat edge pixels.
