Adjustment layers with filters?
Is there any way to put filters on adjustment layers like in After Effects, or do I have to merge alle the layers? For instance if I want to add an edge blur to the whole image, do I have to merge it?

You can apply filters to an adjustment layer, just like you would on a normal one, However if you are using a mask on your adjustment layer you need re-apply it when you add the filter. One way to do this is to select the mask before you apply the filter.
If you are used to the ‘editable’ filters of AE then i suggest converting layers to smart objects and using ‘smart filters’ as these are live editable and maskable.
Not sure if this is any help.
