Photoshop is used by a great many people. Not only by graphic designers, but also by those who want to go a little further than Paint. Despite Photoshop's many capabilities, there are always some things that you, as a designer, miss or that could be improved. Fortunately, there are handy plug-ins that make Photoshop even better. The following five plug-ins are definitely worth checking out!
renamy
When a design becomes even slightly complex, you cannot avoid organizing layers using names and folders. This can be very time-consuming, as you have to name every folder and layer one by one. Every designer is familiar with this problem. Renamy offers the solution! This plugin makes it easy to name multiple layers and/or folders simultaneously. It certainly deserves a place on this list.
renamy costs $14,99
TransformEach 2.0
Just like Renamy, this plug-in is another handy helper that speeds up the workflow. When you transform multiple shapes at once in Photoshop, it comes at the expense of your overall alignment. Everything ends up in a different place. TransformEach 2.0 provides more control over this, allowing you to quickly transform multiple shapes simultaneously while keeping everything in place. Very handy indeed!
TransformEach 2.0 is free
Adobe ColorCC Panel
One of my favorite plug-ins! Easily create color schemes and save them in Photoshop. As far as I'm concerned, an indispensable plug-in for every designer. It is free to download via Adobe Add-ons. As a bonus, this plug-in is also available as an app for Android and iOS. You can use it to save colors via your camera and use them later in Photoshop.
Adobe ColorCC Panel is free, provided you have an Adobe CC account.
Of course, there are many more good plugins available. This is a small selection of a few plugins that are well worth checking out. Do you know of any handy plugins that aren't listed? Let us know; we are always interested in tips to improve our workflow!
