- Click in front of a comp name to switch to it. Clicking in the
column on the left side of the Layer Comps panel displays a tiny
manuscript icon and shows the layers and effects saved with
the corresponding comp. In Figure 5-64, I clicked in front of
the third comp, Rapid City Photo. Note that the photo is cen-
tered and fully visible. Click in front of Dinosaur Elements to
see the photo offset and masked.

- Examine a layer comp’s settings. Any comp that has a triangle
next to it includes a description. To view the description, click
the � to twirl open the comp or double-click to the right of the
comp name (not directly on the name) to display the Layer
Comp Options dialog box shown in Figure 5-65. The dialog
box lets you view the complete description, as well as which
layer attributes are saved with the comp. To learn more about
the check boxes, read the sidebar “What Layer Comps Can and
Can’t Save,” on the facing page. When you’re through poking
around—we’re not doing anything except looking around—
press the Esc key to exit the dialog box.
