理解和使用Photoshop的智能对象(2)

Following is an example showing what we normally do to a post summary. There will be a thumbnail, post title, post summary and read more button. What we usually do is to group them all up in a single folder and duplicate them several times. This not only makes Photoshop performs slower due to the many layers and it is also troublesome if we just need to do one simple amendment, such as changing the font for post title.

So what we can do to improve our effiency is to convert the entire group folder into one Smart Object!

下面是在制作网页时摘要部分用智能对象处理的一个例子.通常包括一个缩略图,标题,摘要以及read more的按钮.我们以前都是把它们编到一组,然后复制几遍.这样做不仅让Photoshop在面对大量图层时变的运行缓慢,更麻烦的是当我们要对其中一项进行更改,比如标题的字体样式,我们不得不对每一个副本进行更改.

所以我们最好的方法是将整个摘要部分的组转化为一个智能对象.

We can then do more complicated designs, in this case we made three post summaries using only three Smart Object layers. This shall make your Layers Panel look much neater.

这仅仅是一个简单的摘要部分,如果是更为复杂的内容,使用智能对象将显得极为方便.这里我们只使用了3个智能对象(其中两个是副本).图层面板显得非常清爽.

Smart Object as a Template for Photo Effects

This can work similar to those presets found in Photoshop Elements if done properly. I shall demostrate a simple example of what I mean by that. Let us start off with a photograph (in courtesy of ShutterStock ).

智能对象作为图片处理的模板使用.

使用恰当的话,这可以应用于大部分的Photoshop 处理工作.通过下面这个例子大家应该可以对这种方式有更好的理解.

我们从这张图片开始 (in courtesy of ShutterStock).

Then right-click on the image layer and convert it into a Smart Object. So any adjustment effects and filters that come after that will not destroy the original photo.

右击图层选择将其转换为智能对象.这样在做一些图像调整效果和滤镜的时候不会影响到原始图片.

Then we add a Color Balance adjustment layer above the Smart Object.

接着我们为其添加一个色彩平衡的调整图层,并调整一些参数.
