I currently use PSE9 but am trying out the Trial version of PSE 2023 - there are huge differences in how the program looks and works, which was to be expected, but one thing I haven't been able to figure out is . . . can you import your own PSE Actions and have them show up in the Effects panel like you can do in PSE9, by copying the ATN and thumbnail files to a certain folder.
I know I can import actions so they show up in the pop-up Action Panel - just looking to keep the editor functionality as much like PSE9 as possible . . old dogs you know ;^)
Any one know?
Thanks!
Dan

Hi Dan, I also have PSE 2023. Yes, you can. All you need is the .atn file; Elements will automatically generate a thumbnail. 1. Go to Window > Effects > Classic. 2. Click on the four-lined square in the upper right corner of the Effects panel and select Load Effects. 3. In the dialog box that opens up, navigate to where you saved the .atn file on your computer and click on the Load button. (Or you can just double-click on the .atn file.) 4. The action you loaded will appear in a category called My Effects. NOTE:For some reason, sometimes, Elements will not generate the specific thumbnail for an action loaded via the Effects Panel; it just uses a generic thumbnail (a tree). However, this should not prevent the action from working. If you still can't get the action to work via the Effects panel, then, the solution is to run it via the Actions panel. There have been confirmed reports that some actions won't work when loaded via the Effects panel but will work when loaded via the Actions panel. As a matter of fact, the experts recommend using the Actions panel. |
