Adjustment Brush Tool or Graduated Filter Tool in Camera Raw for Photoshop Elements 12?

Is there an Adjustment Tool or Graduated Filter Tool in Camera Raw for Photoshop Elements 12?

Those are Lightroom tools for those who don't want to use a regular pixel editor like Photoshop or Elements which have much more powerful tools to do that.
The idea with the reduced set of feature in the ACR version of Elements is that features available in Elements are not necessary in ACR. You need to use the Elements editor more frequently than if you are working with Lightroom.

  • Adjustment brush changes can't be undone in Camera Raw?

    I worked on a RAW file in Camera Raw (Leica M9, DNG), changing various settings and correcting various areas with the Adjustment brush. When I come back to the file, I can re-modify all the settings, except in the Adjustment brush mode, where it only seems possible to create a new adjustment zone.  "Add", "Erase" and "Clear All" are all greyed out.  Does anyone know how I can undo the changes that I made a couple of weeks ago?  It looks like they've been made permanent, but it's not supposed to be like that with RAW files.
    Many thanks for your help.

    Can you, from within Photoshop, choose File - Open As, then choose the TIFF file, and set the selector over on the right to Camera Raw?
    I know that you'd really like to set up to open them automatically through Camera Raw, but this could serve as a workaround.

  • "Graduated Filter" tool in Aperture 3?

    I have been using Lightroom 2.7 for the past time, but want to give Aperture 3 a chance as well. My favorite and often used feature in Lightroom is the "graduated filter" tool that allows me to reduce the exposure selectively and in a graduated manner in blown out skies and other areas that are overexposed.
    In Aperture 3, I didn't find a similar tool. How do you deal with overexposed areas in your RAW images in Aperture 3? Is there such a thing like a "graduated filter" tool or are there other ways to selectively (and "quickly & dirtily") correct exposure in selected areas of your image?
    Thanks for any hints - this is the killer feature in Lightroom that is crucial for me.

    There are a few options which may provide you with satisfactory results. As mentioned you can Brush in effects to lighten or darken wherever you brush for example using the Dodge or Burn adjustments as appropriate. You may also get good results using the Exposure brick, specifically with the Recovery or *Black Point* sliders. Also the *Highlights & Shadows* brick may do the trick with the Advanced settings allowing you to only alter high tone, low tone or mid contrast ranges that you can define. Curves can also do magic in this area and may take some playing with but has the potential to be your new favourite ‘must have’ tool!

  • Lightroom 4 Graduated Filter tool

    How do you change from compact mode to expanded mode in Graduated filter tool in Lightroom 4?

    What do you mean by Compact mode?
    - When you select the graduated filter, the menu expands. When you deselect the Graduated filter the menu rolls up.

  • Graduated Filter Tool

    The graduated filter tool in LR 3 Develop module works fine but the grid lines that displayed the area affected are missing. How can I restore them?

  • Is their a fix for photoshop elements 11 move tool? Not working with Yosemite OS upgrade.

    Is their a fix for photoshop elements 11 move tool? Not working with Yosemite OS upgrade.

    Hi,
    We sincerely apologize for the problem customers are facing while using a trackpad with Photoshop Elements 11 & 12 on Mac OSX 10.10 (Yosemite).
    We have been actively working with Apple to resolve this problem as quickly as possible. We're hopeful this will get completely resolved in an upcoming update of Yosemite(MAC 10.10).
    In the meanwhile, you have two options to work around this problem:
    1. Option1: Use a mouse instead of the trackpad
    2. Option2: Install a plug-in which should workaround the problem
    Plug-in installation instructions:
    1. Close Photoshop Elements
    2. Download this zip file to a location you can easily find (e.g. your desktop)
    3. Unzip the file, WhiteWindowWorkaround.plugin, and move it to the Plug-In folder:
    • For Elements 12 – //Applications/Adobe Photoshop Elements 12/Support Files/Plug-Ins/
    • For Elements 11 - //Applications/Adobe Photoshop Elements 11/Support Files/Plug-Ins/
    You can verify the plug-in is installed by launching the Photoshop Elements Editor and choosing Help > System Info... Scroll to the bottom of the text in the dialog and look for the plug-in name "WhiteWindowWorkaround.plugin".
    Note: This plugin is a temporary workaround and should be used until this issue is addressed in Mac OSX 10.10 (Yosemite). Please remove this plugin once the issue is officially resolved by Apple.
    If you are using a stylus in conjunction with a trackpad, you might see issues with your trackpad. Workaround in this particular case is to use mouse instead of the trackpad.
    Hope this helps!

  • LRCC - Resize adjustment brush WITHIN a graduated/radial filter

    Easier to explain by detailing the steps to reproduce the issue:
    - switch to grad filter (M)
    - Zoom in (Z)
    - position the filter somewhere on the image
    - Use the "adjustment brush" tool within the grad filter (shift+T)
    - Use the mouse scroll-wheel to resize the brush.
    The brush size changes as expected but the image also scrolls. This is not the same as the behaviour of the standard adjustment brush.
    Is there a setting to turn this "feature" on/off?
    Thanks. Rob
    LRCC on Windows7

    Certainly is weird behavior. You should report the quirk here: Photoshop Family Customer Community

  • My tools for photoshop elements 12 are locking up. WHY

    The last 6 times or so that I have tried to get onto my photoshop elements 12 and work on something, the tools are locking up and I have to force quite the program.
    I have tried several things and nothing is working.
    I don't see any up date for the program. The only thing that I did different was update my mac computer to Yosemite.....and that could be the problem....maybe something is not compatible.
    It is very frustrating to say the least. Any help would be appreciated!!

    Please update your mac to Yosemite 10.10.1
    This should solve your problem.
    Thanks,

  • Filter for Camera Raw in Photoshop cs6?

    Bonjour,
    J'ai un petit problème avec nom photoshop CS6.  Je me suis rendu compte que dansl la galerie des filtres, il me manque celui de "filtre pour caméra raw"
    Nous savons tous que dans la fenêtre des flitres il y a: Galerie des flitres, grand angle adaptatif, correction de l'objectif, Fluidité, peinture à l'huile, point de fuite mais j'ai remaqué, en regardant des videos, que le filtre "filtre caméra raw" n'est pas là.
    Sauriez-vous comment puis-je l'avoir, le récupérer ? Je me demande bien pourquoi qu'il ne fait pas partie de mes filtres ?
    J'ai réinstallé mon logiciel et il est toujours manquant.
    En espérant que quelqu'un pourra m'aider.
    Merci à l'avance
    Yves

    The camera raw filter is only in version CC.  CS6 does not have this filter.

  • Can adobe photoshop brushes work for photoshop elements?

    I know, this is astupid question. But im not really sure.
    Im just curious if adobe photoshop brushes, will work for photshop elements 7.
    7 is the newest one, by the way.

    Just for reference, at this time Photoshop Elements 9 is the newest release of that application.  Perhaps you meant to write "7 is not the newest one".
    Yes, you can load Photoshop CS4 .abr files into Photoshop Elements.

  • No Adjustment Brush Tool in Camera Raw 5.2

    Hi, I'm new here. After watching a Gavin Hoey tutorial on HDR editing, I decided to give it a try. My pc came with PSE 7.0 pre-installed (it's version 7.0.1 and the camera raw is version 5.2.0.65) When I drag a RAW image into the edit window of PSE, it opens in a camera raw 5.2 window. On the Hoey tutorial, the window has an adjustment brush in the top toolbar, but on mine, there is no such tool. Is this normal, or can I download an update to fix this? I'm guessing PSE is a "diluted" version of PSand that's why the adjustment brush is missing.

    The tutorial was undoubtedly using Camera Raw hosted by the full version of Photoshop.
    Camera Raw in Photoshop Elements is emasculated by design, even though the Camera Raw plug-in is exactly the same one used by the full version of Photoshop.  There's only a limited subset of the features and tabs offered by Camera Raw when hosted by Elements.
    I don't remember at what stage the Adjustment Tool was added, so you should try updating Camera Raw at least to version 5.7, or higher if your version of Elements supports a higher version.
    In my opinion, Photoshop Elements is overpriced by about $80.

  • Adjustment brush in Raw 8.3 not working???

    Upgraded Bridge and camera raw from the adobe creative cloud desktop.  Also upgraded all CS6 apps. Upgrade went smoothly.  Having problem in Camera Raw 8.3.  The problem is with the adjustment brush.  It is not working at all.  I can add a new adjustment, when I make any adjustment there is no adjustment. Also I cannot see the mask, or cannot toggle mask on and off.  Absolutely no adjustment with adjustment brush.    Running windows 8.
    Then I went and paid for the 9.99 subscription.  Downloaded both ps cc, bridge cc and lightroom 5.  Download fine, all apps working fine with both versions installed.  Having same issue with the adjustment brush when using bridge cc to ACR camera raw 8.3. 
    First time user of lightroom, seems like the adjustment brush inside lightroom will make the adjustment.  I can’t see where to toggle on and off the mask.  I see the “mask:” at top of adjustment box but nothing next to it or unable to click anything.  I will continue to understand how the mask works in lightroom.  When I click automask again I dont see a mask??
    Any suggestions.  I may redownload the windows version of the camera raw 8.3 update and try again.
    Hope I have explained this well enough?

  • Graduated filter

    2 questions.
    1. Can you limit the filter to only one side of the photo? That is- shorten the horizontal lines?
    2. If you have a sky in the background you want to work with, but people in the foreground (actually was taking photo of friends) How do you use the filter if you do not want the filter to affect the foreground person, object, etcc?

    No, you cannot shorten the lines. You can drag the filter on an angle, but the lines will extend to the edge of the image.
    I am assuming that the feature you are looking for will "probably" be included in Lightroom 6 because it is available in Camera Raw for Photoshop CC. After creating your gradient you can use a brush to brush away areas of the gradient. As I said, this feature isn't available in Lightroom yet. But it is in Photoshop CC, and it will allow you to do what you need to do.
    If you have Photoshop CC you can create your gradient using Lightroom and then open the image as a smart object and use Camera Raw to brush areas that you want excluded from the gradient.
