Blur filter problems

When I click ok button in Blur filters I get colored blocks instead of blur effects.

What filters? What system? What version of PS? You need to be more specific. assuming you refer to the enhanced blur filters in CS6, update your graphics driver.

Scrubby sliders in the Lens Blur Filter in PS CC 2014 behaving erratically.

The scrubby sliders in the Lens Blur Filter in PS CC 2014 are behaving erratically. In PS CC no problems. I may be mistaken, but I think I read somewhere that this filter only works on 8bit images.
In PS CC it works on 16bit, and in PS CC 2014 (no third-party plugins) nothing works. Could this have something to do with the Graphic Card, or Cache Levels? All advice appreciated.

Sorry, no solution to the problem, but a confirmation. I do have the same problem (Intuos Pro and Pen & Touch) showing the problem with ACR 8.5 and Photoshop (2014, CC and 6, these were updated with ACR 8.5) . No such problem before ACR 8.5 and no problem with LR 5.5 (also containing ACR 8.5).
I hope there will be a solution from Adobe soon, since sems to be caused by the ACR update.
Windows 8.1 in my case and latest Wacom Intuos driver installed.

Blur filter missing when publishing the movie

In one movie I use some blur filter on a movie clip. I see
the effect when I play the timeline directly inside flash (by
pressing enter). But when I "Test movie" or publish the movie the
blur filter is gone.
I have encoutnered this problem twice now and I don't know
why this is happening. I usually do not have this problem but
suddenly the blur-filter stops working.
Publish settings are correct what i can see (version: Flash
Player 9 )
Anyone encountered the same problem?

Ok, I found out what the problem was. Im having a png-image
inside the movie clip I use the blurr filter on. And it seems like
there is a size-limit on the image when you are using filters. I
made the image a bit smaller and the blur came back and then made
it bigger and bigger in steps and just before I reached the
original image size the blurr filter stopped working again. I don't
know if the limit is on the pixel size or the kb of the image, but
some sort of size limit is there.

Flash 8 display 'jumping text' Bug after Blur filter

I think I found a display bug/glitch with blur effect in
Flash 8.
(I'm using the MC TWEEN actionscript method.)
I need to apply a blur filter to a Movieclip with dynamic
text.
When scrolling this Movieclip the text 'jumps' about causing
visual glitch
and a slow down...
I have tweened the blur filter back to 0 and I have also set
Movieclip.filters=[];
Has anyone else experienced this problem? Is there a fix?
Thanks,
David

If this problem is reproducible, than submit to a bug list at

Perhaps could be eliminated in future release.

Blur filter + mask

I think a couple people asked about this problem but none of them seemed to get an answer so I am re-posting.
This is how blur filter and mask work in code
var blur:BlurFilter = new BlurFilter();
blur.blurX = 10;
blur.blurY = 10;
var mask:Bitmap = new Bitmap(...)
var shape:Shape = new Shape();
shape.graphics.beginFill(color, alpha);
shape.graphics.moveTo(100, 100);
shape.graphics.lineTo(...);
shape.graphics.endFill();
shape.filters = [blur]
shape.mask = mask;
bitmap.bitmapData.draw(shape);
But result is not what I want. Please see the below image:
Making another bitmap and copy pixels using the mask works but it makes whole applcation very slow.
How can I mask blur filter using a single draw?

The difference between the code I posted and what you have there is that you are applying the mask and the blur to the shape, whereas I applied the blur to the shape and the mask to a container the shape is inside. This is because for a given object the filters apply AFTER any masking, but you want the reverse. The only way to control the order that I know if is to create more layers.
In other words, change the last code you posted like this:
1. Create a container for the shape:
var container:Sprite = new Sprite();
2. Add the shape to the container:
container.addChild(shape);
3. Apply the blur to the shape, and the mask to the container:
shape.filters = [blur];
container.mask = block;
3. Draw the container to the bitmap:
bitmap.bitmapData.draw(container);
That should produce the image you want.

Flash Blur Filter Crash

Hiya,
I keep having the problem of Flash crashing in a very bad way
(leaving the Flash.exe process running in memory, with one option
left - close it from the task manager) when i apply a blur filter
with whatever settings to an object and test the movie repeatedly
or scroll through the timeline back and forth a couple times.
Happens on various machines, different configurations and OSes
spanning from XP SP2 to VISTA ULTIMATE 64 bit. Please, help me out,
i had to skip on blur filter all the way to avoid these odd
crashes.

Im gonna desperately try to bump it, since the problem is persistent on different machines/setups and no solution is available...

How can i view the ellipse and the points on the ellipse in order to modify the settings when i'm using the iris blur filter on Photoshop CC 2014

I can't use this blur filter (diaphragm) because i see nothing that could allow me to increase, decrease or move the ellipse that normally appear(?) on the screen. What's amazing is that this filter does his job on photoshop CS6, but not on Photoshop CC 2014 ?! Thanks in advance for your help. Serge.

Start from the beginning
- Select the Rectangle Tool - go to Options Bar, ensure 'Shape' options is on from the the Pick a Tool Mode drop down list.
- Draw Rect. This should create a vector Shape Layer.
- Select it in the Layers Panel: The Properties Panel then should highlight the Density and Feather options.
What happens here when you drag the Feather slider? On my end it feathers the vector shape as a whole.
If you need further masking capabilities, then apply a Layer Mask to the Shape and proceed with the Properties Panel Density/Feather options.

How do I apply the blur filter to all my layers at the same time?

Hi I'm working on a background for a web page and I want to try how different filters are going to affect all the layers. Is it possible to apply a filter to all the layers without flattening the file first? Thanks very much,
Cathy

Thanks very much , that's really helpful,Cathy

Subject: How do I apply the blur filter to all my layers at the same time?
Hello!
There is no need to flatten the file, but you can create a layer that merges all the content of the image, and apply the filter on that layer.
Target the topmost layer, by holding the Option and . (period) keys, then create a merged copy by holding down Command Shift Option E.

Can the tilt shift blur filter be used in a smart object?

can the tilt shift blur filter be used in a smart object?

I could be wrong, because I don't have PS in front of my, but I'm pretty sure the capability to use those blurs in smart objects was added in CC.

Blur filter question

Hi there,
I'm in the planning phase for a project and was wondering if it is possible to dynamically blur video using the blur filter? Specifically, I want to:
1) Stream an flv file, and apply the blur to the left and right edges of the video, so that they become clear on mouseover.
2) Blur the whole video, and have only the region closest to the mouse pointer clear, which will follow mouse movements.
3) Feather the blur, from blurred to clear
What sort of additional system resources does the blur filter require? Will it increase the swf file size much?
Thanks for your help!
Dave

Thanks for the quick reply kglad. So is there no way to have a gradual blur? Does the area to be blurred have to have crisp edges like http://imm.sheridanc.on.ca/imm2006/alducent/tutorial/blur.html ? I really need to have the region that follows the cursor to be in focus (showing the flv behind), and then have it gradually blur more and more the further away from the cursor.
Thanks,
Dave

CS 5.5 plug-ins - sans Lens Blur Filter

hello the BASIC Lens Blur filter from AE 5 is NOT showing up in AE 5.5 - and yes its in the correct folder in AE 5.5 but its not a choice in the effects menu
any solution suggestion?

Lens blur is not included in 5.5 as a selectable option.
However, you can add lens blur to a layer in CS5, then open or import the project in CS5.5. The filter will show up and you can copy and paste it to another layer. It's kind of a wonky workaround, but it will work.
I'd love to see a project where the new filter won't do what the old one did. Blur map is the new Depth Map. If you have an example, even WO footage I'd love to take a look at it.

Zoom blur filter jerks

LR/PS - Applying the Lens Blur Filter for Selective Focus | Adobe Evangelists - Julieanne Kost | Adobe TV

In this episode of The Complete Picture, Julieanne Kost shows us how to get great results with the Lens Blur Filter in Adobe Photoshop CS4.
http://adobe.ly/x3bXus

After you make the blur over the full picture, you quickly switch to the gradient panel, but you say it so fast that I don't know what you pressed to get there. It sounds like you say tap the "g" key for gradient. But when I do that, the paint bucket tool appears. Help?

Where is the SURFACE BLUR filter?

In Photoshop CS2, there is a surface blur filter. I need to use it now, but I can't find its plugin although I have Photoshop CS2 SDK now.
Where can I call the "surface blur" function?
Thank you!

Thank you very much for your information.
But I want to call this function in my VC++ codes. Could you tell me how to do?
Best regards.
