  • Bug Fix: Stamped option did not work in Photoshop Elements when only one layer was present.
  • Bug Fix: Plugins that do not support smart filtering can now be applied to smart objects.
  • Bug Fix: When restarting Photoshop or Photoshop Elements the FilterHub window sometimes did not show up at the same position but was moved by a few pixels.

New in FilterHub 1.01 (Jan 4, 2013)

  • Windows Only:
  • Support for Photoshop 7-CS3 and Photoshop Elements 2-11 with the help of an automation plugin, which works almost identical to the extension, but cannot be docked with other panels.
  • FilterHub makes up to six new filters (e.g. Curves, Channel Mixer and Black & White) available in Photoshop Elements that are not available otherwise.
  • Full Installer that installs the FilterHub extension in Photoshop CS4-CS6 and the FilterHub automation plugin in all versions of Photoshop and Photoshop Elements.
  • Filters start up faster (up to 1/3 second) when double clicking them (compared to the previous version).
  • Font size options added to panel menu
  • Drag & Drop Support: You can now move items in the Favorites lists in Favorites and Edit view by drag & drop. It is also possible to drag & drop items from All to Favorites list in Edit view.
  • Items are now inserted after the last selected item in the Favorites list of Edit view. Only if no item is selected, they are added at the end of the list.
  • If a fill layer is selected, FilterHub now asks if you want to apply the filter to the layer mask, in case the filter supports it.
  • The All list in Edit view is 10 pixels wider to compensate for the arrow and scroll bar.
  • Bug Fix: Plugin scanning problem resolved, which caused scan failure, e.g. for the ContrastMaster 1.0 Mac plugin.
  • Bug Fix: Conversion from Bitmap image mode works now.
  • Bug Fix: When removing two items from the Favorites list that were located apart, all items between them were removed.
  • Bug Fix: When editing the Favorites list, it is does not scroll to the top and hide the changed items anymore.
