In addition to delivering major updates to Photoshop on desktop, Adobe today announced that it is bringing Photoshop to the web . The company also announced updates to other Creative Cloud apps and services, including Lightroom, Illustrator, Premiere Pro, After Effects, Fresco, Behance, Adobe Stock and more.
"Today at Adobe MAX 2021, we announce a major release of Photoshop on desktops and iPads," writes Adobe Pam Clark.
"In addition, we are trying something new, releasing a public beta of a new shared Photoshop web application. In this beta, you and your partners will be able to open and view your work in the browser, provide feedback, and make some major changes without having to download or start Photoshop. ”
Key improvements to desktop Photoshop include auto-hiding features for the Object Selection Tool, a one-click Mask All Objects option, new Neural Filters, a beta version of a Landscape Mixer tool that automatically adjusts the scene's time. Color transfer capabilities that apply the color palette from one image to another, a Harmonization Neural Filter that intelligently adjusts the hue and brightness of an image and, perhaps most notably, the copy / paste interoperability with Adobe .
On the iPad, Photoshop brings support for Camera Raw files, the ability to convert layers to Smart Objects, Dodge and Burn tools, and a new Share for Commenting feature built into Photoshop for desktops.
And the new Photoshop on Web, in beta, provides a portion of the full Photoshop product with Share for Commenting compatibility, basic editing capabilities, and more. Available for Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge.
Photoshop on the Web is part of a broader initiative by Adobe to bring as much of its Creative Cloud suite portfolio to the web as possible. You can learn more about this effort on the official Adobe blog.
