To set tool options
The options bar appears below the shortcuts bar at the top of the Editor workspace. The options bar is context
sensitive—it changes as you select different tools. Some settings in the options bar are common to several tools, and
some are specific to one tool.

About palettes
Palettes help you manage, monitor, and modify images. Some palettes have menus that provide additional
commands and options. You can organize palettes in the workspace in many different ways. You can store palettes
in the Palette Bin to keep them out of your way but easily accessible, or you can keep frequently used palettes open
in the workspace. Another option is to group palettes together or dock one palette at the bottom of another palette.
Note: Drag a palette out of the Palette Bin if you want to remove it from the Palette Bin and keep it open.
