Texture Slider In New LR Update

Just released in the latest update to Lr, is the texture slider. From the ACR Team: Introducing the Texture Control | Adobe Blog Did some preliminary experimenting with it tonight and have to say I like what I see.

I played around with it this week, and am not sure what to make of it... This looks like something I might be more prone to use with an adjustment brush in the same way I would use negative clarity to de-emphasize skin texture without losing sharpness across the entire image. The jury is still out on this one for me.

Supposedly only works on the middle frequencies. I've used it with adjustment brushes, gradients, radial filters and combined it with clarity adjustments. It's going to require some experimentation for sure, to determine how to best utilize it.

I used it in the newest build of PS RAW. Seems like an improvement to me.
