cadobir Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 I'm looking for filters in AP that serve the same function as Photoshop's Maximum and Minimum filters. (Photoshop:: Filter : Other : Maximum, e.g.) One way I use these filters is to refine selection masks by expanding the black or white area of the mask. This also works to thin or thicken lines in line art. I see that AP has Minimum Blur and Maximum Blur, but those are not the same thing. Does anyone know what I mean, and where to look for it if it exists in AP? Or perhaps whether it's an upcoming feature?

kazu san Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Quote I see that AP has Minimum Blur and Maximum Blur, but those are not the same thing yeah absolutely. Still there is no Maximum/Mimimum filters like photoshop, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotMyFault Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 The Min/Max Blur filter, when applied to a mask layer, in my view work exactly like the original author wanted. You can use them in "Quick Mask" to get thinner / thicker lines. So can someone with knowledge about Photoshop explain where you see any remaining difference? Please focus on missing functionality. Affinity UI can differ by far from PS.

cadobir Posted September 29, 2021 Author Share Posted September 29, 2021 OK, I've rechecked, and they do work close enough to the way Photoshop does it to be useful to me. Thanks for your feedback, everybody. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
