The New Photoshop 2020 Updates

Adobe always releases the really big updates in autumn, during the Adobe MAX event. There aren't many changes to announce this time, just two. Content-Aware Fill and the Lens Blur filter.

Content-Aware Fill had already received a major update in autumn 2019. These changes were announced earlier in this video on Photofacts Academy. Adobe has now made a small but very useful adjustment: the Apply button.

Previously, you had to open the Content-Aware Fill window for each object you wanted to remove. If you had several things in your photo that you wanted to change, this involved quite a few steps.

But now there is an Apply button, so your change is applied in the window and you can immediately continue by removing another object. This adjustment may be small, but it certainly speeds up your workflow.

The second update to the programme worth mentioning concerns the Lens Blur filter. You can use this filter to add blur to your photo, making it look as if you used a shallow depth of field.

The effect now looks even more realistic. In a way, the bokeh that Photoshop adds has become more attractive and realistic. The programme also now makes full use of your graphics card, meaning this filter can be applied faster and more efficiently.

There are a few other adjustments that are very small and specific. One of these is the dark mode for Apple users, which was introduced with Catalina, as well as a few improvements for iPad users.
