Using ON1 Effects 2019 with Adobe Photoshop Elements

How to use ON1 Effects 2019 as a Plug-In to Adobe Photoshop Elements

When you edit an image sent from Photoshop Elements to ON1 Effects 2019, you are editing Photoshop Elements’ currently selected layer. By default, Effects makes a copy of the layer, so your original layer is saved. If you’d like to change this preference, see the Plug-Ins section of the Preferences window.

ON1 Effects 2019 is accessible from within Photoshop Elements in two ways, from the File > Automation Tools menu, or from the Filter > ON1 menu.

3. From the Filter menu, select ON1 and then ON1 Effects 2019.
