Starting to Work / Help

If you ever get stuck on a particular feature or function, and the tool tips is not enough help or information on how something works, you can actually go to the Help menu and choose Help Contents. And what this does is it launches your web browser and brings up Adobe's HTML based help. And what this is, is a collection of HTML pages which is in a folder in the Adobe Photoshop folder. You have three basic ways of browsing through the help - the contents sections. When you click it, it brings up this list of chapter headings. Click one, and then it brings up a list of particular pages that relate to that particular chapter heading. You can also use the search feature. Click on search - it brings up this area to type in some text, and I'll type in a keyword, and click the Search button. And see what I get as a result. And there you have it - I have a whole bunch of pages I could choose from. I'll just read the title of the page and click on one of these pages, and it'll bring up a very informative page on how to use marquee tools. There is a awful lot of content in this online help. In fact there is more content than is actually in the manual. So if you're stuck on something, I encourage you to use the HTML based help.
