No lighting effects
Using cs6, Filter>Render>Lighting Effects is grayed out and non responsive. Every other filter seems to work fine,
If a Shape Layer is targeted, Lighting Effects will be unavailable because LE, like all Ps filters, operates on pixels. Other filters will be available but will prompt you to rasterise the SL. There is a UI inconsistency here.
If the target is a SL (first make a hidden duplicate of the SL if you think it may need edited at some time), right-click it in Layers panel and pick Rasterize, then LE will be available.

Photoshop cc lighting effects do not seem to work
I am trying to put spotlight on area in photo but from render - lighting effects all that happens is my workspace changes on the right to "lighting effects" but nothing works and I have to close this side and shut down photoshop just to go back to a normal "essential" workspace. == what is the problem?
I'm having the same issue as well. Just started using CC tonight on both my home and work Macs. My home computer is a late 2006 MacPro, 6GB RAM, 2.66ghz and the work computer is 2013 MacPro with way more guts in it. Photoshop at home runs terribly slow all together but I did manage to see some slight improvement when I switched off "Use Graphics Processor" in the Preferences panel (Prefs > Performance) but this also turns off the Lighting effects filter. I remote logged in to my work Mac and using the same file (saved in the cloud), applied the lighting filter and it worked perfectly. All that to say, I'm pretty certain is a graphics processor/memory issue more than it being a CC issue. At home, the filter attempts to work, stops, and the only thing left is the properties panel like the effect is active.
Looks like I need some upgrades.
Hope this helps! -
Urgent - Need help with Lighting Effects Filter
Hi,
I need urgent help on something regarding the Lighting Effects filter in Adobe Photoshop CS5. I need lighting effect urgently to complete a project.
I am using Photoshop CS5 on a Windows Vista computer in 64-bit mode.
On the net it is given that you can run photoshop CS5 in 32-bit mode to use the lighting effects filter - both on Mac and PC.
My Problem:
While on the net it is given how to change from 64-bit to 32-bit and vice-versa, I have my Photoshop CS5 installed on 'E - Drive' and not on 'C - Drive' due to lack of space. I have followed all the instructions on how to open it in 32-bit mode on the net, but I still cannot use the lighting effects plugin.
What I need is if someone could give simple and clear instructions on how to open Photoshop CS5 32-bit version instead of opening the default 64-bit version on Windows Vista - that would be great.
Looking forward to answers.
Thanks.That advice about running the 32 bit version of cs5 for the Render> Lighting Effects filter
only pertains to the mac version of photoshop cs5.
The lighting effects filter does work in the 64 bit version of photoshop cs5 on windows, your
document just has to be 8 bits/channel and in the RGB Color mode (Image>Mode) same
for using the lighting effects filter in the 32 bit version of cs5.
Added: In general it's frowned upon installing photoshop on drives other than C drive.

In PS CS6, ALT key is in the light of replication lighting effects filter
The light can not be copied, only one adjustment, this adjustmentout of the light is not the same. How to solve...
Sorry, I am not good at English, only through online translation ofdialogue, the syntax is wrong, please forgive meAlpha 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, MicheleHave you installed all the Photoshop updates?
And have you checked your GPU maker's website for updated video card drivers? -
Filter - Render - Lighting Effects seems to be somewhat less than perfectly functional for me.
Unlike another recent poster, I'm seeing the controls okay, but they don't actually seem to work properly. Worse, I can reliably produce a crash.
I have an ATI Radeon HD 5670 and Catalyst 12.6 (latest released) drivers for Windows 7 x64, Advanced mode GPU operation. My detailed system info can be found here: Link
Chances are this is a display driver issue, but I want Adobe to know about it.
Here's what I see...
For testing I create a middle-gray square document, 8 bits/channel, sRGB, then start the Lighting Effects filter on it:
If I toggle the preview setting off and on a number of times, this happens:
This is reproducible, though it sometimes takes more or less Preview toogles. Here is the pertinent information from several such Photoshop crashes:
Next I am going to try Normal and Basic mode to see if they make any difference with this problem. I'll follow up here.
-NoelNoel, followed your example and no crashes on my system (Intel 4000 card with latest production drivers) but horribly slow, probably the slowest filter I have ever tried - Basically unusable.....

Lighting Effects filter in CC does not stay on layer properly
Hey this is my first post on the forums and I have been having problems with the lighting effects filter in my cc version.
It is hard to describe but in the lighting effects editor where I can position my lights and stuff I have 2 spotlights shining on a object.
When I am in the lighting effects editor it looks how I want it to look. While when I click ok to apply it to the layer, photoshop actually stops responding (at one point crashed) and removes the desired effect.
I am not sure what it is doing but it is very annoying and I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem happen.
Images
In the lighting effects editor
Once I click OK to apply it to the layer
As you can see, it changes the way it looks in a few minor ways. If anyone knows how I can get it to stay looking like how it was in the first image, I would love to know.
Thanks!So nobody knows about this issue or has any tips to try and solve this?

Lighting effects not showing up in CS5
This plug-in is not showing up on both CS5 and CS 5.1 running on a MAC OSX 10.6.7 Italian system. I have tried both from the Italian versions of PS and even from one new version in English of PS5.1 and it isn't to be found under the menu "rendering" or enywhere else. I see that it is in the plug.in folder and the folder of lighting effects is there as well, but it just doesn't show up. Any ideas about this bug? I've tried it on 3 different computers!
As far as i know, the lighting effects filter only works in the 32 bit version of
photoshop cs5/5.1 on a mac system.
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/photoshop/cs/using/WSfd1234e1c4b69f30ea53e41001031ab64-7959a.h tml
There is also a photoshop macintosh forum (you posted in the photoshop elements forum)
http://forums.adobe.com/community/photoshop/photoshop_macintosh
Added: If you have the extended version of cs5, you might experiment using 3d lights
for lighting effects, which works in the 64 bit version of cs5. Turn your layer into a
3d postcard and use the 3d lights for various lighting effects.

Lighting effect not working for photoshop CC 2014
hello there i can not seem to get the lighting effects working in Photoshop cc 2014 i updated it and also made sure my graphic driver was updated and also made sure that it was strong enough to run it and it is so now i'm just confused why its not working.
not sure what to do from here need to get some textures done and this does not help and couldn't find anwsers on the adobe contact us tab so came here.I could repro this. Fix it by restarting Photoshop.
What happens is that when you toggled your graphics acceleration on without restarting Photoshop, it made Photoshop go coo-coo for Cocoa Puffs. (It happens.) Hopefully, someone from Adobe's staff will see this. -
I have an issue using Lighting Effects in Adobe Photoshop CC 2014
Hello everyone,
I am having issues using Lighting Effects in Adobe Photoshop CC 2014. I created a duplicate layer that I want to do the effects on, converted it to a smart object and on that same layer went to Filter>Render>Lighting Effects to get to the Lighting Effects screen. When adjusting the parameters (drag/reshape the lights) for either the spotlight or point light, I don't see any changes. Can someone tell me what could be the issue or if I'm doing the steps wrong to apply the effects?
Here are my specs:
Operating System: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit (6.1, Build 7601) Service Pack 1 (7601.win7sp1_gdr.140303-2144)
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2600S CPU @ 2.80GHz (8 CPUs), ~2.8GHz
Memory: 8192MB RAM
Available OS Memory: 8174MB RAM
Card name: AMD Radeon HD 6570
Manufacturer: ATI Technologies Inc.
Display Memory: 743 MB
Dedicated Memory: 1008 MB
Shared Memory: 3831 MBI am experiencing flickering issues as well. However my issues are with the Fast Color Corrector and the Three Way Color Corrector. It seems as if the color correction tools are causing intermittent flickering on some people's systems.
Additionally when I converted some old PPCC 7.2.2 projects which had the Three Way Color Corrector applied, some clips in sequences would come up as a green screen in the program monitor. If I turned the TWCC off the footage would display correctly in the program window. If I turn the TWCC back on it would display the green screen again.
I haven't found a solution to the flickering but to solve the green screen issue I have to remove the effect, then re apply it. I guess for whatever reason, the 2014 version of PP has issues with 7.2.2 projects where the TWCC was applied.
I'm hoping Adobe will address this soon with an update for the various bugs that have been reported.
PPCC 2014 8.0.1

I have CC and while attempting Light Effects, the Light Effects Layer will appear in the layers panel, but the option bar will not appear and neither will the Properties panel. All my preferences are set correct, and my computer has a compatible video card and RAM. Please help!
I tried to delete the layer attempt again. I am in a Photoshop class, but the work is all online, so all my teacher is going to do is send me to this site. I am trying to edit a photo for this class, and without this working, i go to filter>render>light effects. the bar and panel will pop up for about 2 seconds, then disappear. How do i get the options bar and properties panel to display?I was about to suggest resetting LE from the Workspace drop-down top right corner, but if you can't see the Options Bar, I guess that is not going to happen. The normal Tool reset is grey out for LE, so it might be a case of resetting Preferences.

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.
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. -
Lighting Effects filter in PS (CS6; 64-bit) crashes program
This is a Win7 64-bit OS, new CS6 installation with all updates applied/installed.
Use of Lighting Effects rendering filter in PhotoShop (CS6, both 64- and 32-bit versions) causes PS to crash.I did make some suggestions, which you appear to have only dabbled with... Did you try Basic mode? Did you try checking/unchecking all the various settings in all the combinations? Be exhaustive. You feel your system is advanced, I get that, but you're looking to isolate a problem here.
I'm not as familiar with nVidia as I am with ATI, but have you investigated the various settings their driver UI provides?
I'm not saying there's a definite fix in there, but In doing these things you might:
Discover a combination of settings as a workaround that makes it work acceptably for you.
Be able to tell Adobe or nVidia exactly what to look for if they want to investigate it further.
By the way, have you contacted nVidia and let them know Photoshop is crashing when it tries to use their GPU for Lighting Effects?
Lastly, some folks have found that fully uninstalling the display driver, cleaning up any remnants of it and prior display drivers that may still be laying around, and installing the latest driver sometimes helps. Display driver writers are apparently not all that good at writing installers.
I never had this issue with CS4... Only CS6
People sometimes like to say that kind of thing, but (and I'm sorry to be blunt): So what?
This is an entirely new program with new, different, and greater demands of your computer system. It's using more and different features of your GPU than any prior version.
I can only assure you that it does work okay for some others. I have had no problems with Lighting Effects myself. But you should know that since Photoshop CS6 first came out I *HAVE* had crashes while trying to do 3D modeling work. At least some of those were caused by the (then current) ATI display drivers. I (and others) contacted ATI and described the problems, and their subsequent driver versions have gotten more stable. Their current version seems to work rather well with Photoshop CS6. My point is that things can get better. Hang in there.

Need help with Lighting Effects; CS3
So, let's say that you were trying to work out some customization using the Lighting effects under: Filter > Render > Lighting Effects.
I understand that there is a very specific file that has the Styles.
Any chance I can fix this problem?If you mean that they're grayed out then that's because you're not in RGB color mode with 8bits/channel. If you mean that the filters simply don't show up in the Filters menu then they're probably hidden in which case go to Edit->Menus and make sure that the Set dropdown is set to Photoshop Defaults (switching to the Basic workspace changes the menus to the Basic set that hides a lot of menu items)

JavaFx Lighting Effects : When to Use which ???
Hi,
I know that this question in more design oriented than technical,
but still i'm posting this question in this forum .
I wanted to start off with javaFx lighting effects and i have found very good examples online .
I have seen the implementation of lighting effects at:
[http://code-better.com/javafx/lighting|http://code-better.com/javafx/lighting]
and [http://jfxstudio.wordpress.com/2009/03/18/javafx-light-effect/|http://jfxstudio.wordpress.com/2009/03/18/javafx-light-effect/]
These applications just gave us the ability to configure the lighting options .
I also have found a file effects.fx online and in that i see that
effect: Lighting{
light: DistantLight{azimuth: 90}
} // to be used to make a button look pressed
and
effect: Lighting{
light: DistantLight{azimuth: 270}
} // to be used to make a button look upbeat .
But this hasn't worked for me in few scenarios .
For example i have tried to apply these 90 and 270 distant light effects
to buttons made of various gradients and for some it seemed to have worked and
for some it doesn't seem to have worked .
I think we will have to change the color of distant light for that .
Could any one point me to a guide or online site or some tips
that will help be in understanding which effect to use when and which color
should i use for the lighting effect and other stuff .
It would be of great help for me .
Thanks a lot .
byeHi JavaFx Duo,
Thanks for your reply .
Actually I wanted to find out info like how to make an image ( or button of any gradient )
look gone inside or look up ( in a measurable way, i mean depth or height below/over the surface )
using lighting effects . And how does the azimuthal angle
and the color of the light source have an effect on it .
Earlier i have posted a forum in which Phi Lho has answered me
on how to make the button text look gone down and i can try to achieve
that by trying similar here .
[http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10844582�|http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10844582�]
But i thought of making use of the lighting effects and i want to know if any guide or tutorial
is available which describes the lighting effect with various Colors
and angles and when to use distant light/point light and spot light effects .
I would also like to know a few practical implementations
of these effects in javaFx ( i.e as i have posted earlier 90-for making it look deep and 270 for looking elevated
and such stuff ............................. ) by varying the angle and Color ,
So that i can use them in my applications rather than trying various combination
each time .
Thanks -
How to create this lighting effect in Premiere Pro or After Effects?
Hey,
I'm a student and premiere beginner and I'm trying to make my first video in premiere. In this video, Drawing Channing Tatum - YouTube , you will see that lighting effects in the first 10 seconds. How can i create this?
I thank you so much!
MarieThat is stock footage of the ends of a film roll exposed to light during the loading process that is simply laid over the video with the add or screen blend mode applied. You can search for "film damage" stock footage and find something that would work from stock footage houses. You can fake your own with shape layers, blurs and opacity animations using the same add or screen blend mode. It's just much harder to get the film damage to look "real."
Here's what my google search turned up as the first link to stock footage. I have no relationship with this company and have never used their footage.

You could also just get your smart phone close to a lightbulb, make sure it's out of focus and then move it around.
