Navigating Photoshop®

Photoshop is the high-horsepower, industrial strength image editing and creation software used by millions of photographers, designers and home users around the globe. While the creators of Photoshop have done an admi-rable job of presenting its myriad functions and features in an easy-to-use manner, the sheer number of options available can be a bit daunting to the newcomer. In this lesson, I’ll take you on a whirlwind tour of Photoshop CS1’s workspace, its many palettes and the option bar.

The Workspace

 When you first start Photoshop, you’ll see a screen like this. The grey area in the center is called the workspace and in it you’ll edit your photos and create your images. Across the top is the menu bar, which gives you access to functions like layer control, image selection, filters and much more. Below that is the Options bar, which displays settings for the currently highlighted tool. A selection of palettes are arranged at the right and the Tools palette rests on the left.

The Window Menu

The Window menu will quickly become one of your most frequently used menu items. This menu allows you to control which of Photoshop’s palettes are displayed. Because there are so many, you can close those you aren’t using at the moment – by clicking the red button on the upper right of the palette – to

maximize your available workspace. If, for example, you close the Colors palette but later need it, simply click on the Window menu and place a check next to that palette. Notice that all currently displayed palettes are checked, while those that are hidden are not.

The Tools Palette

On a scale from 1 to 10, if the Window menu rates an “8” for must-have-can’t-live-without Photoshop options, the Tools palette is an “11”. If this palette is not displayed in your workspace, just select the Window menu, then place a checkmark next to Tools. The Tools palette is the workhorse of the Photoshop interface – here you’ll find options for selection, text, color, gradients, photo

retouching and lots more. Positioning Palettes You may have noticed that most palettes feature several tabs in a group. If you’d like to separate the Layers tab, for instance, from the rest, click the tab itself

and drag it to a new location. If you’ve got your palettes hopelessly scattered around your workspace and would like them back in their default positions, simply click Window>Workspace>Reset Palette

Locations and all will be right with the world.

And many thing waiting for you...

“Hi Shane..

It’s a bright, beautiful Fall day here in Northern California.. I’m a little tired though, after staying up all night reading your GREAT e.book. Thank you for all your insight into the complicated world of Photoshop. You make learning all of the necessary things FUN, and interesting. I appreciate, and respect your knowledge, and always look forward to learning something new through the eyes of Shane

Goldberg!”

“Hi Shane,

Thanks for the great Photoshop Book. Always available to refer back to, unlike Seminars and expensive courses which are great on the day, but when you come home – forgotten (except how much I paid).

The tutorials you provide are easy to follow, simple, yet complete and are always there when

I need them. Keep up the good work and keep the cool tutorials coming.

Regards,

Hi Shane!

Well, you’ve done it again! Produced another invaluable learning tool. Your videos are the best, but most of all, your ability to explain the concepts in a way that makes me feel as if you’re right there actually caring if I understand. So sad to me that you’re on the other side of the world. I’d so love to watch you in action! Once again, I really appreciate your hard work and making the world of photography even

more fun!

Best regards,

“Hi Shane,

Your new book is fantastic. Even after attending a Photoshop class at the local university, this book is

much more practical, useful and, by far, much easier to understand. Not to mention that your price

is less than one fourth the price of the class. Being a bit technologically challenged and using my first DSLR camera, I needed help with Photoshop in a big way. Your book is by far the best I’ve read. Also, the interesting way you have put together the tips and tutorials and pictures make everything fun. The best part is that even at my age of 64 years, I can understand all that you have written.”

Many thanks and best wishes,
