Shrink Those Palettes Down To Size

 

Are your palettes in the way, but you don’t want to hide them all using the Tab key? You can double-click the palette’s name tab, and the palette (and any nested palettes) will minimize to just the tab itself, giving you back lots of screen real estate. Need the palette back, just double-click on its tab again.

Create A Composite Layer

If you have a multilayer composition and you
want to apply an effect to all the layers at once, don’t flatten the layers–use a composite layer instead. Hide the layers you want excluded, and press Shift-Command-Option-E (PC: Shift-Ctrl-Alt-E). A new layer will be created at the top containing a merged copy of all the visible layers.

Another option is to create a new layer at the top of the stack and make it active. Command-click (PC: Ctrl-click) each layer you want to include to make those layers active, as well. Press Option-Command-E (PC: Alt-Ctrl-E).
