What's New in Adobe Photoshop CC 2014
Photoshop CC 2014 introduced several improvements aimed at photographers, graphic designers, and web and user-interface designers. Some of the notable additions and improvements from this release are described below.
Path Blur and Spin Blur
The Blur Gallery in Photoshop CC 2014 added Path Blur and Spin Blur. Path Blur lets you create motion blur along a custom path, while Spin Blur is designed for circular or elliptical motion effects. These tools provide more control over the direction and shape of motion blur.
Focus Area Selection
Photoshop CC 2014 introduced Focus Area as a selection feature for images with clearly defined areas of focus. It can automatically identify portions of an image that are in focus and use them as the basis for creating a selection. This can be useful when separating a focused subject from a softer background.
Content-Aware Improvements
Content-Aware Fill, Content-Aware Move, and Content-Aware Patch received improvements in Photoshop CC 2014. The updated technology works more effectively with areas containing gradients, helping users remove or move objects while producing more natural-looking results.
Linked Smart Objects
Linked Smart Objects made it possible to reference source files from outside the Photoshop document. This can help reduce document sizes and makes it easier to update shared assets across multiple Photoshop files. Linked Smart Objects can also be packaged with a document when the project needs to be moved to another computer.
Layer Comps Improvements
Photoshop CC 2014 improved Layer Comps with options for synchronizing changes. This makes it easier to maintain different design variations while keeping layer visibility, position, and appearance organized.
Font Search and Typekit Integration
The updated font workflow made it easier to search for and preview fonts. Integration with Adobe Typekit also provided access to a larger collection of typefaces for Creative Cloud users.
Improved Smart Guides
Smart Guides received workflow improvements that made it easier to align and position objects accurately. Designers could use visual guides and spacing information to create more consistent layouts.
Adobe Generator Improvements
Adobe Generator received improvements for web and interface design workflows. Designers could generate image assets from Photoshop documents and use more flexible naming and output options. Generator also provided capabilities for developers creating Photoshop extensions.
Color Lookup Tables
Photoshop CC 2014 added the ability to create and export Color Lookup Tables, commonly known as LUTs. LUTs can be used to apply a specific color treatment or grading style to images and can also be used in other compatible Adobe applications.
Other Workflow Improvements
The 2014 release also included a range of smaller workflow improvements, interface refinements, and performance updates. These changes were designed to make everyday editing, design, and asset-production tasks more efficient.
Photoshop CC 2014 was therefore an important early Creative Cloud release, particularly for users working with photography, web design, and digital graphics.
