Chapter 1: Looking at the Work Area
elcome to Adobe Photoshop Elements.
Photoshop Elements gives you an
efficient work area and user interface to
create and edit images for both print and the Web.
Getting familiar with the work
area
The Photoshop Elements work area is arranged to
help you focus on creating and editing images.
About the work area
The work area consists of the following
components:
Menu bar
The menu bar contains menus for
performing tasks. The menus are organized by
topic. For example, the Layers menu contains
commands for working with layers.
Shortcuts bar The shortcuts bar displays buttons
for executing common commands. (See “Using
the shortcuts bar” on page 21.)
Options bar The options bar provides options for
using a tool. (See “Using the options bar” on
page 20.)
Toolbox The toolbox holds tools for creating and
editing images. (See “Using the tools on page 19.)
Palette well The palette well helps you organize
the palettes in your work area. (See “Using the
palette well” on page 21.)
Palettes Palettes help you monitor and modify
images. (See “Using palettes” on page 22.)
Using the tools
Some tools in the toolbox let you select, edit, and
view images; other tools let you paint, draw, and
type. You can view information about any tool in
the toolbox by positioning the pointer over it. The
name of the tool appears below the pointer—this
is called the tool tip. Additional information about
the tool appears in the Hints palette. (See “Using
the Hints palette on page 29.)
You must select a tool in order to use it. The
currently selected tool is highlighted in the
toolbox. Some tools have additional tools beneath
them—these are called hidden tools. When you see
a small triangle at the lower right of the tool icon,
you know that there are hidden tools.
