However you cannot change the settings of an effect because the layer with the effect is a pixel layer and not an adjustment layer.
There is an exciting new set of presets, now available under the Textures category for Smart Brush.
Textures Option
The 15 new presets help provide the following effects to your images:
Enhance dull and boring backgrounds.
Create a Satin effect for clothes/textiles in an image.
Add flowery patterns to dresses in an image.
Add designer patterns to walls or backgrounds in an image.
The Detail Smart Brush tool enables you to paint the adjustment to specific areas of the photo just like a painting tool. This tool helps adjust fine
details with pattern and effect presets. Painting and applying the preset in small areas is more precise. Click an effect from the drop-down list and
paint over the area to apply the effect. You can choose from a range of brushes. It has settings for brush size and shape in the options bar.
It also works like a Selection tool; you can click Refine Edge in the options bar to modify the selection's shape and size. To remove an area from
the selection, click the Remove area from Selection brush.
Both brush tools enable you to add to or subtract from the areas being adjusted. You can also have more than one adjustment preset applied to a
photo. Each preset adjustment is applied to its own adjustment layer. You can tweak the settings for each correction separately.
When a correction is made, a pin appears where you first applied the adjustment. The pin provides a reference for the specific adjustment. A new
pin appears when a different adjustment preset is applied. This feature makes it easier to modify a specific correction, especially if you apply
different adjustments.
