Customizing your workspace

The positions of all open palettes and movable dialog boxes are saved when you exit the application. Alternatively, you can always start with default palette positions or restore default positions at any time.

To save the current workspace layout:

1. Choose Window > Workspace > Save Workspace.
2. Enter a name for the workspace, and click OK.

To choose a workspace:

Choose Window > Workspace, and choose a workspace from the submenu.

To delete a workspace:

1. Choose Window > Workspace > Delete Workspace.
2. Select the workspace you want to delete, and click Delete.

To reset palettes to the default positions:

Do one of the following:

• In Windows or Mac OS 9.x, choose Edit > Preferences > General, then select Save Palette Locations.
• (Photoshop) In Mac OS X, choose Photoshop > Preferences > General, then select Save Palette Locations.
• (ImageReady) In Mac OS X, choose ImageReady > Preferences > General, then select Save Palette Locations.
• Choose Window > Workspace > Reset Palette Locations.

To always start with the default palette and dialog box positions:

1. Do one of the following:
• In Windows or Mac OS 9.x, choose Edit > Preferences > General.
• (Photoshop) In Mac OS X, choose Photoshop > Preferences > General.
• (ImageReady) In Mac OS X, choose ImageReady > Preferences > General.
