Quickly hide layers
For total control over images it’s vital to create layers for any new task. Although this gives you more creative control, it means you end up with a long list in the Layers palette. If you need to carry out a complex edit on one layer and don’t want to be distracted by the others, hold down the Option/Alt key and click the eye icon next to the layer you want visible. All the other layers will be hidden.
