6/15/2023 0 Comments New changes to topaz studioPaint Volume – Individual strokes show highlights and shadows increase size for an Impasto look. By clicking on the three bars at the bottom of the preset and selecting Edit, the name can be changed so I am now adding a TI to all my Impression presets and TC for my Clarity presets.įor those who have forgotten what all the Impression Stroke sliders do, or if you are new to the plug-in, here is a quick reminder:īrush Size – Very small size protects the detail in image large size blends detail so less noticeable and more painterly. I know some people are enjoying have the presets all in one place, but I am still having problems with organizing My Effects presets so I can tell which ones go with which adjustment. Just like with Clarity for Topaz Studio, Impression can be opened from the the blue Adjustments button, the Adjustments menu in the top bar, or from the Specialty section in the pop-out on the left side of the interface – down at the bottom Impression will be listed along with the new updated Clarity if you own it also. Must compare with the Topaz Labs version to actually see this difference. Increased detail in every brush stroke.Increased the resolution of any image larger than 2k.The addition of a Painting Progress Timeline slider which “…allows you to move forward and backwards through the development of the Impression effect added to your image.” Using it will give some very different effects from what the full application of the paint strokes creates.Below are the major changes that have been implemented to the plug-in: So there really is a major benefit to using the upgraded version in Impression for Studio. By using the Studio interface, each adjustment (including the Impression Adjustment) can be masked, different blend modes applied, and opacity adjusted. By selecting Impression, an interface very similar to Topaz Studio will appear but only the Impression presets will be shown on the left side. The new Impression update will now be linked as Impression in Topaz Studio (Filters -> Topaz Studio -> Impression) instead of in the regular Topaz Labs individual plug-ins in Photoshop. If you have Studio already running, just go to the website to find the Impression update by clicking this link. Instead it will be updated in Studio (to download go to my Tidbits Blog sidebar and for more info check out my see my Introducing the Free Topaz Studio blog) before adding the Impression update. As I said in the Clarity blog, before going any further, please be aware that Topaz is not going to update the actual Topaz Labs version if you own it. And the same great Topaz policy stands so if you already own Impression, it will be updated for free. It actually is easier to understand compared to the Clarity update (see my Updated Clarity Now in Topaz Studio blog for more on this) which included two adjustment panels working together. The interface is very similar to what is in the older Topaz Labs Impression2. This time the program now includes an Adjustment Panel for Impression. Here is a quick blog on another big update to Topaz Studio.
