Updating The Histogram As You Crop

The fact that Camera Raw has cropping built in should be cool enough, but its Crop tool (C) is smarter than Photoshop’s. For example, when you drag out a cropping border in Camera Raw, take a look at the histogram in the top-right corner—it instantly updates to show you the histogram for just the areas that appear inside your cropping border. Sweet!

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.
