Duplicate a lter
Do one of the following:
m Option-drag the lter from its location onto another image layer or group.
The pointer changes
to indicate duplication.
m Choose Edit > Duplicate (or press Command-D).
The duplicate appears with copy appended to its name. When you use the Duplicate command
(or keyboard shortcut), the duplicate appears above the original lter. Drag the duplicate to
another layer or group. If you leave the duplicate where it is, the lter will be applied twice to the
current image layer.
Reorder lters
Multiple lters applied to a single image layer (or folder) appear nested underneath it in the
Timeline and Layers list, in the order the lters were selected in the Library. You can change the
order of lter application to change how they interact.
Some lters yield better results depending on the order they are applied. For instance, never apply
a color correction lter after applying a blur lter. A color correction is most eective when it acts
on the original image, rather than a ltered distortion of the original image. The same holds true for
chroma keying operations and any other eects process requiring unmediated color information.
Reorder a lter
Do one of the following:
m Drag the lter name or icon up or down in the list.
A position indicator shows the new location for the lter.
The Circle Blur
filter moves above
the Echo filter.
