02. Artboard Tool.
The following screenshot shows the Artboard Tool and its corresponding Option Bar items.
If you are a web or UX designer, you increasingly find yourself designing websites or apps for multiple devices. Artboards help streamline your design process by giving you an infinite canvas on which you can lay out designs for different devices and screens. While creating artboards, you can choose from a wide variety of preset sizes or define your own custom artboard size.
Artboards are useful even if you normally design for just one screen size. For example, while designing a website, you can use artboards to view designs for different pages side-by-side and in context.
a. This option allows you to select artboard presets (iPhone, iPad etc) plus you can add custom artboard sizes by putting in the dimensions manually.
b. This option sets the orientation of the artboard to landscape or portrait.
c. This option will let you add another artboard to the photoshop document.
d. These tools are available for the alignment of artwork and layers on the artboard.
e. These are settings for artboard handling, like ‘Auto-nest layers’, ‘Auto-size canvas’, ‘Keep relative position during layer recording’ and ‘Shrinkwrap canvas on save’.
