very useful , thanks for your creative ideas
thanks man i love your tuts
Now i kinda get the usage of smart object ! Thanks !
Thank you Martin. I found out the trick with the „via copy“ when I was working with mockups and I didn’t want to have the same content twice. Awesome video!
Wow your videos are amazing
Thank you for this video, I have been using a different graphic editor for many years and just upgraded to photoshop and still learning the different tools that photoshop has this helps allot
Very good information, keep up the good work!! And Yess I'm also a Designer 😊

Hi Martin....you make it look so simple, I love it. Am I complicating my life by using the "vanishing point tool" instead ??? Thanks a lot.
Great stuff
Awesome Brother, I'm from Bangladesh
great video...
Im a fan
I am searching this exact tutorial only i just found you.Thank you !
I'm glad you found me 🙌
Very nice
Could you make a tutorial how to make a mockup of product, thanks. Thanks for sharing your techniques.
Waiting for the next tutorial
but i am using it since i starts designing :D and I love it even a single change it makes it smart object with action key F3 for shortcut :D
Sir please can you make a video on how you manipulate this ordinary photo to an amazing interior ...
I'm really surprised after seen the transformation
I have been using smart objects the wrong way this whole time !! Thank god I clicked on this video.
Very great tutorial - thanks for taking the time to create this I have a question: How do you replace PART of one image with PART of another image using smart objects?
Example: I have two images of a product (candy bag) in a styled setting on a table. The light on the product is better in image B but I want to use image A as my starting point and add image B's candy bag to replace the candy bag in image A. I need to tweak it since the shape is a bit different between the two images. How do I do that? I guess my biggest struggle so far is how to save the image B (or that part of it that is the candy bag) to then be able to place it as a Smart object in image A?
Thanks a lot in advance 🫶
If you open up the smart object of the rug you can apply a different pattern. When you return to the main file the new pattern will appear with the perspective transformation intact. You can actually create a whole library of rug designs within the smart object while you look for the perfect one.
Interest peeked
I would like to place a logo on a cup...a mockup...would I use photoshop or illustrator?
Hi, I'm interested in joining your creative classes, my question is that it can be canceled at any time? Thanks.
Great vidéo
I give u my tip to apply free transform tool to vector smart objects
Import or paste your Vector in PS and chose the option 'paste as a pixels'
Make a smart object with this New layer than édit it and paste the Vector in it as vector
Close
Now you have a smart object in a smart object
You Can apply free transformations with it
Sorry for m'y english 😶
Here's one that may stump you! I have an image of a page of a brochure (from an imported PDF to Photoshop). I pasted it into Photoshop and then converted it to a Smart Object. I, then, scaled that down and used Free Transform > Distort to align the page overtop of a mockup image below. Once I was complete, the brochure text appeared sharp and chunky and wasn't clean pixels. I was thinking it was something to do with interpolation or bicubic reduction, etc. but I have tried everything to fix it. Still appears bad. Any clue on why and how to fix?
When you double click to edit a smart object and it opens in another window, what key/shortcut are you using to close that window and go back to the main window while making sure the changes save?
Fightlikabrave there is not a single shortcut for that. I press Cmd+S and then Cmd+W.
Maybe you can create an action for it and define a shortcut.
Is there alsow quality loss if you rotate something 90 deg.?
Migi Kigi very smart question (about Smart Objects 😜) I would think that in case of 90 degrees rotation there won't be any quality loss. Since pixels are square that would make sense.
What to do if we forgot to smart object
You've made a pretty big mistake at 13:26 by saying that Ps has a good resampling algo when scaling up. This is only true if you've intentionally set the interpolator in the preferences. Unfortunately, the best algo they have, preserve details 2, isn't available for SOs.
and another mistake a few later when you say that file size doesn't increase when you duplicate embedded SOs. It most certainly does increase as Ps will duplicate the saved SOs file size for every copy. So if you have a 30MB SO, duplicate it will add another 30MB to your file size.
I have a question I cannot find an answer to. After I create a design I like to make a merged layer of the composition and edit it in camera raw. However, the problem is that if I want to change anything from the original comp, even if the merged layer is a smart object and I can move around the camera raw effect, I still have to make the change, then re merge and apply the camera raw. Is there any way that I can have it so that if I edit the original comp. the stamp/merged layer automatically updates? Thanks
Combining your comp into a Smart Object and applying the Camera Raw as Smart Filter is probably the best way of keeping things non-destructive. I'm not sure why it doesn't work for you though, it wasn't clear from your comment. Make sure you save the changes in the smart object source file to see them update in the main comp PSD.
@@YesImaDesigner This helped! Thanks so much! Love the tutorials!
i use this for my cartoon channel logo
I remember my first day in job in small company years ago. They got Photoshop CS, I started doing some simply things, but everything looked so ugly, cause i cannot find smart objects. I spent one day for reading manual, then i discovered smart objects invented in Cs3 version XDDD
Sir
Why does it have to be a mask, and why just not delete the white bg of the vase?
Sorry, didn’t understand very well
The bottle's background was white... The white background seems quite useless. If you make a good selection you could alsow delete the background
Where are smart objets being saved??
