Alpha channels are 16-bit in a 16-bit per channel document. As Christoph said, selections are limited to 8-bit, so if you make a channel from a selection then that channel will have 8-bit quantisation.
Here is an example of Lighting Effects filter using a channel containing a 16-bit radial gradient as a height-map, and where the filter is quantising the height values to 8-bit.

Using the lighting effects filter causes my CS6 to crash

Hi,
I read other threads with people have issues with their PC, but I am not able to follow them to correct my issues.
When I open a JPEG file from my mark iii into CS6, I try to start a new layer and then add the lighting effects filter. CS6 crashes (the little effects comes up on the screen and the little blue circle goes round and round). Nothing happens, but if I check task manager it says photoshop is not running.
I have windows, 16GB ram, and am using a small percent of my memory.
How do I see if I need to update my video card and how do I do that?
Thank you, Michele

Have you installed all the Photoshop updates?
And have you checked your GPU maker's website for updated video card drivers?

Is the Lighting Effects Filter still 32-bit in CS6?

In Photoshop CS4 and CS5, it's a real PIA to have to restart PS in 32-bit mode in order to use the Lighting Effects filter (FILTER>RENDER>LIGHTING EFFECTS). Has this been addressed in CS6? (Still looking for reasons to upgrade.) Thanks.

See this article: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/979969
It focuses on GPU requirements and troubleshooting. The Lighting Effects Gallery depends on the right graphics card and drivers.
Run throught the troubleshooting steps first in order to see what needs to be done.

Every time I use the Lighting Effects Filter the software crashes.

It worked last Friday. I don’t know if there has been any update this week. All updates are done automatically by our IT department.

Why is the Lighting Effects Filter crashing PS CC?

I am creating an RGB 8-bit image, and every time I select the Lighting Effects filter it starts to load then crashes Photoshop CC.

Please read this:

Have you tried different »Advanced Settings« under Photoshop > Preferences > Graphics Processor Settings?
Is your GPU driver up to date (accoriding to the maker’s site, not the OS maker’s)?

How do I get the Lighting Effect filter to work with PS5.1 and Mavericks

Photoshop boots up in 64 bit. There is no option to open in 32 bit unter photoshop app, get info dialog box. Only "prevent app nap". When I change to RGB 8 bit. nothing changes. The filter does not show at all. It is not greyed out. When using Finder, the lighting filter seems to be there in the plug-ins folder. Please help. Thank you.

Have you tried an Adobe forum? PS5 is an Adobe product!

When attempting to use the Lighting effects filter in CS6 it begins to load but then the programme seizes up. It is then necessary to disconnect from the supply to restart. Having done this an attempt to "Browse in Bridge" simply opens a host of files b

On a previous occasion a similar problem occurred but without affecting Bridge. At that time it was suggested that I update the graphics card and this worked.

Same here I have Lumia 920, 3 days after I bought it the device had an overheating problem and once the phone is off, I have to work hard to turn it on again, from soft resetting and hard resetting it After that I brought the phone to Nokia Care Center (I'm Indonesian by the way) in the NCC Branch in my province. 2 days after that, they told me that the problem was solved and asked me to take the phone. When I got there and the Costumer Service want to give me the phone, she try to turn on the phone, but she can't. She take the phone to a room (I don't know maybe it's the repairman room or whatever) and when she got out she told me that the problem is still exist and they will brought my phone to the NCC Center in other province. I have to wait for 2 weeks. Can you believe it? 2 weeks WITHOUT ANY PHONE? I have to buy another low-end phone that time.
After that the phone back to normal, But Then another problem come, after update my phone to Amber, my phone can't use Nokia Pro Cam (at that time, before Nokia Camera out), Bing Vision, Maps, Glance Screen, Auto Rotate, and GAMES. at first I just have to restart the phone to turn it back, but then the problem is not solved after I restart, even then, I did a hard reset but the problem is still there. Last friday, I brought my phone to the Nokia Care Center, they asked to take it the next day, but AGAIN! The problem is not solved, and they said I have to wait until the newest software update to come so the problem can be solved. Today, still no news or information from them, I don't know if I can trust Nokia Care Center again after this

Photoshop CS6 lighting effects filter--where are the handles?

I have read all the previous posts about this, and taken all steps. Running WIn7, 64 bit, my video card is 512Mb, drivers are up to date, PS is up to date, I restarted and stil no handles appear in the Lighting Effects filter.

Does "all steps" include ensuring 'View > Show > 3D Lights' is enabled and 'View > Extras' is enabled when the Lighting Effects filter is active?

CS6 Non-responsive when using Light effect filter in Photoshop

Win 7 OS. I am trying to use the light effect filter and when I select it photoshop gets locked up and won't respond until I end task in task manager (it says photoshop not responding in task manager). Is there a fix for this? I did all of my updates and it still happens. I have homework to do, I need to fix this issue. Any help is appreciated,
Thank you

Every time I try and use lighting effect, on my Win 7, CS6 it crashes. I at least get to use it, but when I click "ok" for the changes to take place, "Adobe has stopped working" and just crashes.
I looked into my Graphics Card drivers update... (AMD RADEON hd 6450) and on the site, I chose a very new update for a catalyst... blah blah. Which gave me this new control panel specific with this new driver update. However, once I downloaded it, restarted (for s & g's) it doesn't show up in my graphics card properties... its the same driver as before. So this may not have anything to do with what help I need. Although, it has a new "control center" that I looked at and its all martian to me.
Someone please help me to resolve this issue??!! I can give more information if needed.

Ps CS6 Problem: Lighting Effects filter quantises 16-bit height-map to 8-bit in a 16-bit document

I've edited this message: one complaint has been removed - it was my mistake - conroy.
Photoshop 13.0.1
OS X 10.6.8
16 bits per channel RGB mode.
The Lighting Effects filter quantises the optional height-map channel to 8 bits, which can result in a very obvious terraced-slopes appearance and moiré.
(Adobe, please do not simply reply with "you should be using 13.0.4" unless that actually fixes the problem.)

Alpha channels are 16-bit in a 16-bit per channel document. As Christoph said, selections are limited to 8-bit, so if you make a channel from a selection then that channel will have 8-bit quantisation.

Why are all my keyboard shortcuts using the "Alt" key instead of the "Ctrl" key? I'm using Windows 7 and Firefox 5.0.1.

I recently downloaded Firefox 5 and noticed that all my keyboard shortcuts default to using "Alt" key instead of the "Ctrl" key (so, for example, opening a new tab is Alt + T instead of Ctrl + T).
I noticed that this is even true for copying and pasting within Firefox (Alt + C and Alt + P are the only commands that work).
Any idea why this is happening? I am running Windows 7 and Firefox 5.0.1.

Thanks, eveostay! That worked. (And for the record, what a crazy user agent string...)

Catching Alt Key Press with the Key Down Filter Event

I am writing an application that requires specific key combinations using ctrl, shift, and alt in addition to a function key (F1, F2, F3, etc). The application works great except for when I try to catch an alt key press. The alt key press does not seem to fire an event eventhough it is an option in the PlatMods cluster as well as the VKey enum. When I press the alt key when my application is running the cursor changes to a normal mouse pointer from the usual finger pointer and prevents any other key presses from going through (in addition to not firing an event itself).
I have tried completely removing the run-time menu, which doesn't seem to help. I currently discard all keys after I handle them in my event structure.
I really hope that the only solution isn't using a Windows DLL. Any suggestions or ideas at all would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ames

Hi Ames
As Kileen has said Khalid has already given you a good solution to detect the ALT key.
I have another approach that might let you stick to your event-driven approach. I suggest that you have another loop in your app that polls the keyboard using the Input Device utility vi's. When this poll loop sees an ALT + KEY combo it raises a dynamic user event and will be processed in your event structure. This means you can keep your key down filter event to process the CTRL + KEY and SHIFT + KEY events.
Example attached in 7.1
cheers

Doesn't a Mac have a definitive way to check to see whether an application is running in 64 bit mode or 32? Some kind of process manager or something? 22 posts have gone by and the original poster doesn't yet seem convinced that it is actually running in 64 bit mode.
I don't know why there has been doubt since post #12 where I explained that Ps must be running in 64-bit mode when more than 2100 MB RAM is reported in Preferences.
Anyway, here's a screenshot of Activity Monitor showing CS6 in 64-bit mode and CS5.1 in 32-bit mode.

CS6 Lighting Effects Filter won't let me copy lights or drag to delete (bug?)

I am trying to apply a Lighting Effects filter in CS 6 x64.
It appears the Alt + drag command to copy a light won't work. I've tried it on the light on the Image Canvas and by alt + drag on the light in the Lights panel wit no luck.
I also can't drag a light in the Lights panel down to the trash can do delete it. I have to select it and just click the trash can icon.
Anyone else having this issue?
Thanks,

Yes, I'm having the same issue in Mavericks with the latest version of Photoshop CC. I cannot duplicate nor can I drag a light source to the trash in the Lights palette.
