If you need to develop several versions of a composition in Photoshop, Layer Comps are the perfect tool to use. They allow you to experiment with multiple versions of a design in one Photoshop file, by saving information about layer visibility, position, and appearance.
And when you combine the power of Layer Comps with Photoshop Smart Objects, you get even more speed and flexibility in your workflow, as demonstrated in the video below. It shows how to add three different photos to a desktop composition, which can then be customized to show any of the photos composited onto a computer screen with a single click.
Check out the video, and add this key time-saving technique to your Photoshop repertoire!
