If desired, employ the Customer Workspace option from the More menu to revert to Elements’ old setup.Īdditional interface changes throughout version 11 range from a new blue outline when selecting layers, for instance, to an Open button in the top-left corner for quickly accessing recent files. Buttons located at the bottom of the screen allow for switching between Layers, Effects, etc., while a More button further opens a second category of panels, which includes Histogram, History, etc., into a floating, non-anchoring window.

On the right side of the basic/default workspace, users will now only see a single panel at a time that no longer launches into separate windows. Panels are even different in the new layout. The new Tool Options panel is also able to hide. Adobe removed click-to-view submenus of related tools, but users could press the tool’s keyboard shortcut to browse them. It is now a more prominent Options panel, located near the bottom of the window, where users will also notice a group of tools like Magnetic Lasso tool and Rectangle. The Options Bar, for instance, previously sat above the image window. Adobe also simplified the visual aspects with larger icons and buttons, improved text legibility, and a reorganized layout. The most obvious change in version 11 is the completely revamped Editor user-interface the light-gray look clearly mimics older-version Elements. Amazon’s pre-order guarantee, however, cuts $10 off each price tag for both the standalone and bundled versions. A bundled option, featuring Adobe’s consumer video editor Premiere Elements 11 (review below), is also available for $149.99.

Photoshop Elements 11 costs $99.99, but users could upgrade from a previous version for $79.99.
