better default values for layer fx

[Schubi63]

Dear dev team,

 

thanks a lot for your work and the implementation of layer fx which work great. But why are you „hiding“ your work from the user? ;)

 

It would help a lot, save clicks, and make more fun to explore all layer fx if their default values would be set in a way, that they show up in a nice way if enabled. At least that the user can see what happens or gets an idea of it if the fx is activated.

 

e.g.: „Gauche Unschärfe“

Why is it set to 0px? If I enable that layer fx - nothing happens. 

So I am „forced“ to move the mouse to the radius slider or input field and type in something at least to see an effect.

 

In this case a default value like „2px“ would be great. You can only win :D Maybe 1 of 1000 is satisfied with „2px“. There are definitely more users out there who are please with „2px“ then with „0px“ which leads to no effect.

 

Same with inner shadow, outer shadow, …. and all the other layer fx which have „0“ radius etc. which leads to no effect at all.

 

Thanks for your time,

Stefan.

Also it would be great to remember the values or (like in PS) add a button "Save as default". Fo UI design it's also not ideal to have the blending mode set to "multiply" as default since there's no "multiply" in CSS.

 

Thanks in advance!
