Chapter 2: Workspace
The Adobe® Photoshop® CS4 workspace is arranged to help you focus on creating and editing images. The workspace
includes menus and a variety of tools and panels for viewing, editing, and adding elements to your images.

Workspace basics
Workspace overview
You create and manipulate your documents and files using various elements, such as panels, bars, and windows. Any
arrangement of these elements is called a workspace. The workspaces of the different applications in Adobe® Creative
Suite® 4 share the same appearance so that you can move between the applications easily. You can also adapt each
application to the way you work by selecting from several preset workspaces or by creating one of your own.
Although the default workspace layout varies in different products, you manipulate the elements much the same way
in all of them.
