Sharpen filters

Sharpen filters can be used to bring into focus photos that appear slightly blurred.

Filters are applied to your image from the Filters menu (destructive) or Layer menu (non-destructive) and mostly include customizable settings alongside general options. Non-destructive filters are called live filters, and, once applied, they can be identified as both a filter and a specific filter type by using unique symbols.
