Photoshop Neural Filters

[Dsnoir]

I have just updated to the latest version of PS, that allegedly fixes bugs, but now Neural Filters doesn't even inform me that NF needs to be down loaded when I attempt to move the slider. Is it me?

I am not 100% sure what you mean.

I just downloaded the latest version, loaded a photo, opened Neural Filters, clicked on "Style Transfer" and I see this which has a Download button.

My Neural Filters is working fine. Tell me exactly what you are trying to do if you will. Neural Filters are photo sensitive, in that if you are trying to use certain features, the photo has to be appropriate to that filter, or it will be grayed out. For instance, if you are are trying to change the face, or smile, you have to be using a photo that included a face. The AI portion of the software looks for those features.

Thanks for your screen shot, this is exactly what I am trying to do, but when I open Filters Neural Filters the slider enabling Colorize is greyed out.

Problem solved, whilst replying on my laptop, I have uninstalled photoshop from my PC and reinstalled, now it's working ok.

In case anyone else is having this problem and maybe a search brings up this thread, there are two steps to activating the filters.

1) download them

2) when you want to use them after they are downloaded, you have to physically turn them on by moving the greyed out slider for the filter to the right. (Note: You need to turn on the filter you want to use every time you re-open the neural filters).

I don't get it.

The neural filters are classic teasers.

They seem to be half-baked shovelware used as PR: look at what PS might be able to do instead of what Adobe doesn't do, like parallel processing or more efficient ways to store complex multi-layered images without file sizes ballooning into the gigabyte realm. Not to mention support for the individual user.

In my experience the Neural Filters don't work reliably, unless you like things like partially colored black and white images. Good enough for play but not much else.
