In the previous tutorial in this series, we learned all about the Toolbar in Photoshop. This is lesson 3 of 10 in our Learning the Photoshop Interface series.ĭownload this tutorial as a print-ready PDF! The Photoshop Toolbar You'll also want to make sure that your copy of Photoshop CC is up to date. To use it, and to follow along with this tutorial, you'll need to be running Photoshop CC. But because it didn't get a lot of attention, many Photoshop users are unaware of it. The improved Reset All Tools command was first added in Photoshop CC 2014. But now, it also resets each spot in the Toolbar back to its default, primary tool. The Reset All Tools command still resets the tools back to their default settings in the Options Bar. In Photoshop CC, we no longer need to do that.
If you wanted to restore all of the default tools, you would need to go through each spot in the Toolbar one at a time and manually choose the default tool. What Reset All Tools would not do, though, is reset the Toolbar itself back to its default layout. This cleared away any previous, custom settings that were used. In previous versions of Photoshop, choosing Reset All Tools would reset all of your tool settings in the Options Bar back to their defaults. Photoshop's Reset All Tools command has been around for a long time.
