I have created an oval that I want to apply a filter effect to. When I apply the "grain" effect to the oval, it fills the oval with "grain" and also creates a rectangle around the oval that it also fills with "grain". How do I limit the fill to just inside the shape?
 
copy the oval into your pasteboard just before you rasterize it. Then after your filter, do a paste in front, take the stroke and fill off the pasted oval, select both and do a ctrl+7 (command+7 for mac) to mask the unwanted grain. BEHOLD!
