Menu Bar If you look at the top of the screen you will see the Menu bar (Figure 3), which contains all the main functions of Photoshop, such as File, Edit, Image, Layer, Select, Filter, Analysis, 3D, View, Window, and Help. Toolbar Most of the major tools are located in the Toolbar for easy access. The Image The image will appear in its own window once you open a file. Image Name The name of any image that you open will be at the top of the image window as shown above. Palettes Palettes contain functions that help you monitor and modify images. By default, palettes are stacked together in groups. These are the palettes that are usually visible: Color, Adjustments and Layers. If none of the palettes are visible, go to Window in the Menu bar and choose the palettes you need.
If you used other Adobe products, such as Illustrator or InDesign, you should be familiar with the
toolbox in Adobe Photoshop CS6 as it shares some of the tools from these applications. If you
are a new user of Adobe products, you should keep in mind that you might not need to use all of
the tools. In this tutorial, only the basic tools will be discussed in-depth.
Some tools in the toolbar have additional “hidden” tools. These tools have small black triangles in
the right-hand corner. To view the “hidden” tools, click and hold down on any tool that has a gray
triangle in the corner (Figure 10).
