Styles are predesigned Photoshop layer effects, such as shadows, glows, bevels, overlays, and strokes, that you can apply to most layers in a menu. Once applied, the effects are linked to the object. When you move or edit the object, the effects change with the object. A B C D E FG Styles panel A. Name of currently displayed set B. Preview of selected style C.

Delete Item The Styles panel divides styles into three categories: Image, Text, and Shape. You can apply any style to an individual layer, except subpicture highlight layers-layers with the (=1), (=2), or (=3) prefix. When styles are applied to layer sets or buttons, they affect the layers within the set according to their style category. The layers they affect depend upon the category: Image Applies the style to all layers in a layer set (except highlight layers). Text Applies the style to the first text layer in a layer set that is not a highlight layer. Shapes Applies the style to the first shape layer in a layer set that is not a highlight layer. Styles generally fully replace any existing effects applied to a layer. The Styles panel includes a few styles that add to the existing effects in a layer rather than completely restyle it. Additive styles have a plus sign (+) at the beginning of their names. You can create your own styles and add them to the Styles panel, or group styles into sets. (See "About creating styles" on page 113.)
