If your work heavily involves working with others and involving Adobe Photoshop in the process, there’s some potentially good news for you. The company has announced a private beta testing for live co-editing within Photoshop, letting multiple people to work on the same file from different computers at the same time.
The feature sounds as simple as its name implies, but in the announcement blog post Adobe has also provided a number of examples in which the feature can be used. This includes letting multiple designers split tasks and tackle different aspects of a project at the same time. Which sounds like a nightmare when you see people making unintended changes and undoing them in a flash, or when you make an intended change in between those two.
When you have other passive parties getting access to the Adobe Photoshop project file, this means getting live feedback from a client that’s watching you work, or from a teacher than only chimes in when you need help or feedback. The latter would probably be much appreciated, but the former sounds like it can really go both ways.
Those who have been using Adobe Express on the regular would probably be chiming in and saying that this is already a thing, to some extent. But if you want to use it within Photoshop specifically, you’ll still have to sign up for it, via the link below.
