You can modify the duration setting in the timeline by going to the Animation panel’s flyout menu and selecting Document Settings. In the dialog, you can set the duration and also choose a frame rate from the pop-up menu or you can enter a custom setting.

Scrub Through Timeline

You can quickly scrub through the timeline by clicking-and-holding on the Current Time Indicator. You will notice the cursor turn into opposing arrows. Just click-and-drag either to the left or right to scrub through the timeline.

Toggle Between Keyframes

When animating objects in the timeline, Photoshop interpolates between keyframes to give a sense of movement. However, if you would like the animation to toggle between keyframes, Control-click (PC: Right-click) on that keyframe in the timeline to bring up the contextual menu and select Hold Interpolation. The appearance of the keyframes will change, and when played back it will cut to each keyframe.

The Animation Panel: Taking Animated GIFs to the Next Level

You too can create exciting animated GIFs for use on your next website. Just follow these simple steps: (1) Create a text layer, (2) apply styles, and (3) hide the styles. The Animation panel takes care of the rest. In the Animation panel, you can control the position, opacity, style, and wrap of a text layer. Clicking on the Clock icon to the left of the style layer activates that option. At that point, just move the keyframe playhead to the end of your animation and turn on the styles. Voila! Instant animated GIF. To export it to your very own website, choose File>Save for Web & Devices, and select your desired output features.

Measure Anything in Photoshop

If you choose Analysis>Set Measurement Scale>Custom, you will get a dialog where you can set a series of presets. Although you are in the dialog, you can still move outside of it and click-and-drag out a measurement.

Setting Measurement Parameters

When using the Analysis tools in Photoshop, you will need to establish the scale of measure. Go under the Analysis menu, choose Set Measurement Scale, and select Custom. You have three settings to modify: Pixel Length, Logical Length, and Logical Units. An example would be if you know your document is 100 pixels wide, you would enter 100 in the Pixel Length field. Then, if you know that 100 pixels equals an inch, you would enter 1 for Logical Length. Then type inches for Logical Units. Now you have set the Measurement Scale to measure every 100 pixels as one inch.

Measurement Presets

You may find yourself setting up measurement parameters for a number of different size images. To keep from having to reset the values over and over, click on the Save Preset button. It is perhaps a good idea to name the presets after the pixel dimension to make them easy to identify.
