You can make changes to a Smart Filter after you've added it to a layer.

• A. You cannot adjust the Smart Filter after adding it
• B. You can adjust the Smart Filter after adding it
• C. The Smart Filter becomes permanent and uneditable
• D. You must re-apply a filter to change it

Answer: (B)

You can make changes to a Smart Filter after you’ve added it because Smart Filters are non-destructive and editable. Once a filter is applied to a Smart Object, its settings aren’t fixed—they can be revisited and adjusted at any time. In the Layers panel, expand the Smart Filter group for that layer and double-click the filter’s name to reopen its dialog and tweak parameters. You can also adjust the filter’s opacity or blending mode, or mask the filter to control where it applies. This flexibility is what keeps edits non-permanent and reversible.
