Tools and Panels Primer
When you first open Photoshop CS4, the newly
designed interface is unassuming. As you explore deeper
into the tools and panels, however, you might find that the
interface can quickly become cluttered, if not downright
confusing. If you’ve worked in Photoshop previously, you
might be aware that all of those panels can take up much
of your screen, unless you’re fortunate enough to have a
second monitor to expand your workspace. This chapter
will help you to become familiar with Photoshop’s tools
and panels so that you can manage the updated CS4 work-
space effectively.
