Adobe Photoshop CS5 : Working with Layers - Working with the Layer Comps Panel

3/1/2015 10:12:27 PM

The Layer Comp are an image or instantaneous of the actual position of the panel of layers. When you create Layer Comp, you record the visibility of layer, the position of a layer in the document, and all the styles of layer applied to the image. The manufacturing changes into the layers in your document and then the update of the panel of Comps of layer creates a new compartment of layer. Any time you want to view a particular Layer Comp, just select it from the Layer Comps panel. Layer Comps create different versions of your document and saves them all in one file, giving you different creative options for the same document. In addition, they give you the option of printing the same document with different variations, by choosing different Layer Comps during printing.
