Hey Colin, stumbled onto this the other 24-hour interval. Exactly what I need to paradigm a new webpage. Cheers. Now I understand Smart Objects a little improve and the New Guide Layout widget is a gem… My need is this: I desire all the shapes drawn with the Rectangle Tool to conform to a 2×3 aspect ratio! I am trying to get a template with three columns of 2×3 rectangles and four to 6 rows high. Any suggestions? I know I can probably become this done with conventional hand placed individual guides, but subsequently discovering the Layout tool, that seems too much, eh?
Thanks,

Hi Colin,

I just watched and folllowed your tutorial on how to design a page layout in photoshop. I followed it to the letter simply when I was placing my photos they all were placed as black and white. What could I have missed or done incorrectly. Black and white is okay just the pictures I used expect much meliorate in color. Thanks for the video.
- Sounds like you have a setting wrong somewhere. All channels showing? Not in Grayscale manner?
I have been struggling with Photoshop and your video was awesome, good tone voice, easy to follow, and neat template. I would really relish seeing more of your tuturials.

Your template can only be used past manually editing it in photoshop and manually editing smart object layers content and editing other layers in your template. It can non exist used with Photoshop automation features like Data Driven Graphics for it does not support replacing smart object layers, Deportment can non utilise logic and a custom script would be needed for each of your page layout templates. You page layout design is not suitable for automation for there are no formal template design followed creating your template a generallixed script would have know way to know what is what in your teplates.
- It'south non designed equally a data driven template. If you were doing large data driven layouts y'all should exist using Indesign or Framemaker
