Work with panels
Panels contain features, information, or functionality, in logical groups, for fast and easy access. The Panel Bin is on the right side of Photoshop
Elements. It displays tabs and panels, depending on the mode you are in, or the kind of elements you want to work with. The Panel Bin displays:
Quick mode: lists the quick-mode effects that can be applied to a photo
Guided mode: lists all the guided-mode edits that you can apply to a photo
Expert mode: lists the options for a selected panel (Layers, Effects, Graphics, or Favorites)
Panels in the Expert mode
In the Expert mode, panels can be displayed in two ways - Basic Workspace, and Custom Workspace.
Basic Workspace By default, the available workspace displayed is the Basic Workspace. In this view, buttons for the most frequently used panels
are placed in the taskbar. The buttons in this workspace are Layers, Effects, Graphics, and Favorites. For example, clicking the Layers button
displays all the layers-related options. To view all the other available tabs, or close open tabs, click More.
Custom Workspace To view panels in a tabbed layout in the Panel Bin, click the arrow next to More, and select Custom Workspace. Click More
to view a list of all the available tabs, and select one from the pop-up list. The selected tab is displayed. You can keep the frequently used panels
open in the custom workspace. Group panels together or dock one panel at the bottom of another panel. You can drag title bar of the tab and drop
it in the tabbed layout, or drag and drop the tabs dialog into the tabbed layout.
Note: Drag a panel out of the Panel Bin if you want to remove it from the Panel Bin and keep it open.
