Getting Back To The Filter Gallery Defaults

Let’s say you’ve tried all the filters in the Filter Gallery, and changed each setting so much that you can’t remember what the default, out-of-the-box settings were. Well, you’re out of luck (kidding). Here’s a trick for getting back to those default settings for any filter the Filter Gallery supports (like any of the Artistic filters, the Sketch filters, etc.): Open one of these filters (by choosing it from the Filter menu) and when it opens in the Filter Gallery, press-and-hold the Command key (PC: Control key) and you’ll see that the Cancel button changes into the Default button. Click it (while still holding down Command/Control) and the default settings will magically reappear.

Getting To The Hexadecimal Code

As you may know, there are hexadecimal codes for the colors used in webpages. Not only does Photoshop know these hexadecimal codes, it can extract them from an image and let you paste them into your HTML code editor. First, press the letter I to switch to the Eyedropper tool, and then hold the Control key (PC: Right-click) and click on a color within your image. A contextual menu will appear where you can choose Copy Color as HTML. Now you can switch to your HTML editor and choose Paste to copy the HTML code into your app.
