In this article and below video we will learn how we can create “workspace” to customize
Photoshop as per your workflow.

We all use photoshop for different purpose such like photo editing, graphics designing, 3D
designing, video editing.

Photoshop can do many things, and you are able to customize your own workflow in photoshop,
and you can individually deal with all the panels which you want to see or not to see on your
workflow.

Depending on your work purpose there might be some panels which you never going to use and
you never need to see those panels.

So you can create your own adobe workspace depending upon what you are working on.

workspace known as Essentials. If you’ve never chosen a different workspace, you’re using the
Essentials workspace.
