 ## Progress log
 
+- 2026-10-22: The Effect Gallery shipped (#2883): Effect › Effect Gallery… browses the Artistic, Brush Strokes, Distort, Sketch, Stylize and Texture filters, edits each filter's settings, builds an ordered stack (add, reorder, hide, remove) with a live canvas preview, and OK applies it as separate appearance effects in one undo step. Filter thumbnails and a preview area inside the dialog remain ([Filter Gallery overview](https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/desktop/effects-filters/get-started-with-filters/filter-gallery.html)). Raster effects 82% → 85% (estimated); headline numbers unchanged.
 - 2026-10-22: Colour emoji fonts with bitmap glyphs draw and export: `sbix` (Apple Color Emoji, macOS's emoji font) and `CBDT` (bitmap Noto Color Emoji) glyphs show as their pictures on the canvas, whatever the type's fill, scale and turn with the type, and export to PDF (in the font's Type 3 glyphs, or as images), SVG (images when type is outlined; live text leaves emoji to the viewer), EPS and legacy `.ai` (images); Create Outlines turns them into embedded images. Fonts with bitmaps but no outlines, such as Noto Color Emoji, are now found among the installed fonts. COLR and OpenType SVG fonts remain; headline numbers unchanged.
 
 - 2026-10-22: Effect › Sketch › Conté Crayon: a black crayon in the dark areas and a white one in the light areas, on mid-grey paper whose texture (Brick, Burlap, Canvas, Sandstone; Scaling, Relief, Light Direction, Invert) breaks the strokes, with Foreground Level and Background Level; an original approximation, defaults unverified. Every Photoshop-style filter is now in (57/57); the Effect Gallery remains (4–6 h).
