46 What's New in Adobe Photoshop 6.0 Slice-specific formatting and optimization Sliced images give you more control over how optimization options are applied because you can select separate slices and apply appropriate settings. An image that includes solid colors, text, and photographic images, for example, looks best with different settings applied to different areas. You can also assign a separate file name, URL link, Alt tag, and message to each slice. In ImageReady, you can link multiple slices together in a set, so you can quickly select, optimize, output, and delete only those slices. Setting optimization options for an individual slice; assigning a URL, message text, and an Alt tag to a slice Dynamic layer-based slices Photoshop 6.0 introduces a new way to slice images: Set up your slice content on separate layers and then let Photoshop or ImageReady generate layer-based slices for you. When you slice images this way, each slice is bound to the outermost pixels on each layer. If you then reposition or edit the content of the layer, the slice adjusts dynamically to accommodate the changes. This technique is particularly useful for generating precise slices for rollovers. Slice updates automatically when source layer is modified.
