Is there a best/quickest way to apply a filter across multiple layers? I usually cycle through the layers and press Apple+F or if they don’t need to be kept on separate layers I merge. But if I need them on separate layers is there a better technique than the one I use?
Thanks, Pat

none that I know of.

someday perhaps filters can be applied as effects and may be grouped in layer sets as adjustment layers

Possible workaround:

Create an empty layer on top of the other ones, press command-option-shift-E and apply the filter to the results.
