Host does not support this case.

#define filterCaseFlatImageNoSelection   1

A background layer or a flat image.

There is no transparency data or selection.

#define filterCaseFlatImageWithSelection   2

No transparency data, but a selection may be present.

The selection will be presented as mask data.

#define filterCaseFloatingSelection   3

Image data with an accompanying mask.

#define filterCaseEditableTransparencyNoSelection   4

Layer with transparency editing enabled and no selection.

If the editable transparency cases are unsupported, then Photoshop tries the corresponding protected transparency cases. This governs whether the filter is expected to filter the transparency data with the color data.

#define filterCaseEditableTransparencyWithSelection   5

Layer with transparency editing enabled and a selection.

If the editable transparency cases are unsupported, then Photoshop tries the corresponding protected transparency cases. This governs whether the filter is expected to filter the transparency data with the color data.

#define filterCaseProtectedTransparencyNoSelection   6

Layer with transparency editing disabled and no selection.

If the protected transparency case without a selection is disabled, the layer data is treated as a floating selection. Transparency data will be presented via the mask portion of the interface rather than with the input data.

#define filterCaseProtectedTransparencyWithSelection   7

Layer with transparency editing disabled and a selection.

If the protected transparency case without a selection is disabled, the layer data is treated as a floating selection. Transparency data will be presented via the mask portion of the interface rather than with the input data.
