Helen Bradley notes that few people know that you are able to create your own custom photoshop or indesign panels by using Adobe Configurator, now in version 2.0.
“Adobe Configurator is a utility application that helps create custom panels for Adobe Photoshop CS4, Adobe Photoshop CS5 and InDesign CS5. Configurator makes it easy to drag and drop tools, menu items, scripts, actions, and other objects into a panel design, then export the results for use inside Photoshop or InDesign. These panels leverage the support for Adobe Flash and HTML built into Photoshop, making it possible to drag and drop audio, video, images, and even other SWF and HTML content files into a panel design.”
Download the Adobe Configurator, and follow the simple step-by-step tutorial on building a custom photoshop panel of your very own. Taking it a step further, check out the post on creating workflows for Photoshop using Adobe Configurator.
