The Palettes
In order to show you how big of a role palettes play in Photoshop, simply Press Tab in Photoshop to hide all palettes. Palettes include
everything from the toolbox, to the option bar, to the layers and colors windows.

In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to:
* Arrange palettes
* Resize, show and hide palettes
* Close, Open, and Reset palettes
* Use options inside of palettes

Closing, Opening, and Reseting Palettes
If you need to open a new palette, or a palette which you have previously closed, go to Window in your menu bar, and select the palette you’d like to reopen.

If you’re ever having trouble getting your palettes back into place, and simply want to revert to the default palette layout, go to Window > Workspace >
 Reset Palette Locations in your Menu Bar. This will reset everything back to how you started when you first opened Photoshop.

Setting Options in Palettes

Inside palettes, you’ll find all sorts of various settings from color choices, styles, opacity, and other values. We’ll cover many of these options in detail in the future, but for now let’s go over how to operate some of these options.
