If some aspects need to stay consistent among layer comps, you can change the visibility, position, or appearance of one layer in a layer comp and then sync it to see that change reflected in all the other layer comps. Layer comps can be an especially valuable feature when the design is in flux or when you need to create multiple versions of the same image file. To view the different layer comps, click the Layer Comp box for each comp in the Layer Comps panel in turn. Then you’d do the inverse-turn on visibility for the English layer and turn off visibility for the French layer, and click the Create New Layer Comp button-to create an English layer comp. To create two different layer comps, you would simply turn on visibility for the French layer and turn off visibility for the English layer, and then click the Create New Layer Comp button in the Layer Comps panel. You might have the French text on one layer, and the English text on another in the same image file.

Say, for example, that you are designing a brochure, and you’re producing a version in English as well as in French. When you’ve created a few layer comps, you can review the design variations without having to tediously select and deselect eye icons or change settings in the Layers panel. The beauty of layer comps becomes apparent when you want to demonstrate a number of possible design arrangements.

Then, by switching from one layer comp to another, you can quickly review the two designs. Once you’ve defined a layer comp, you can change as many settings as you please in the Layers panel and then create another layer comp to preserve that configuration of layer properties. You work with them in the Layer Comps panel (choose Window > Layer Comps).

A layer comp is simply a definition of the settings in the Layers panel. The Layer Comps panel (choose Window > Layer Comps) provides one-click flexibility in switching between different views of a multilayered image file.
