How to use the plugins ?

My first thought was just going with an existing one because it’s already working so well for me. After a bit of searching through, there are only a handful of those plugins that are free.

So, I went on with other things like Adobe Photoshop Lightroom or even Adobe Photoshop Creative Cloud. While doing research, I came across another one called Photoshop Retouch Plugin and it seems to be pretty good. Since I was new to Photoshop, this should be an easy way to start. The following tutorials will show you all the steps on how to install it.

Installing Photoshop Retouch Plugin

To get started, you need to install the plugin using these instructions first: https://support.photoshop.net/en-us/community/questions/photoshop/retouching-plugin/

• Now go to /Applications directory in your computer and choose the zip folder.

Finally, rename the folder as Photoshop-retouch-plugin.

Installing P3P0 – Retouching Layer

There is no tutorial but I could refer you to any blog post. So, I’ll write one for my own case. 

• First of all, we need to create our layers, let’s do that by going onto the main menu and choosing the layer option. 
• On the left area of the layer menu, go to Layers > Create Layer.
•  On the right side is Show hidden layer as True. 
• Now on the left side of the image window, hit Choose from files and then choose Show as Hidden. This is what you should see – retouching layer. It will look like that. 
• We will now be creating the mask as well. Just select your current layer > From the list on the layer menu > New layer. 
• Give the required options for mask then Hit OK. 

• You will see a mask on the canvas and it will be applied as a result. So far so good. 
• Let’s continue. As for the layer menu, go there and select Add Layer > Select the color option and go Fill and apply. 
• We will now be adding the filters for mask, let’s remove the original filter first and then add our second filter – remove it and apply. 
• And after that, we are going to add the blur as well so select the filter option on the layer menu > Remove Filters. 
• Finally, we will create two sliders. On the layer menu, select Filter Slider : and then select Apply Filters > and hit Save as button. That’s it!

Let’s set the time interval between when you want the edits to happen. Here is what we’d like to do:

Set a timer between 1 minute to 3 minutes. If you want to edit it on multiple windows, switch from window to window or just press Shift. If you’re busy editing, you would probably just use a single window, so you’d be fine just using 2 windows. But, if you do not have enough memory, then use a larger window like 4 or 5 or whatever size you need.

Here is a useful feature of that tool called Magic Erase. Put it to the desired position and you will leave your edit without losing it to further explore on the magic eraser function.
