Working with slices in the Save for Web dialog box (Photoshop)

If your artwork contains multiple slices, you must specify the slices to be optimized. You can apply optimization settings to additional slices by linking the slices. Linked slices in GIF and PNG-8 format share a color palette and dither pattern to prevent the appearance of seams between the slices.

To show or hide all slices in the Save for Web dialog box:

Click the Toggle Slices Visibility button .

To show or hide auto slices in the Save for Web dialog box:

Choose Hide Auto Slices from the Preview pop-up menu. A check mark indicates that slices are hidden.

To select slices in the Save for Web dialog box:

1. Select the Slice Select tool .
2. Click a slice to select it. Shift-click or Shift-drag to select multiple slices.

Note: In the Save for Web dialog box, unselected slices are dimmed. This does not affect the color of the final image.

To view slice options in the Save for Web dialog box:

Select the Slice Select tool, and double-click a slice. (See Working with image maps (ImageReady).)

To link slices:

1. Select two or more slices that you want to link.
2. Choose Link Slices from the Optimize pop-up menu .

The link icon  appears on the linked slices.

To unlink slices:

Do one of the following:

• To unlink a slice, select the slice, and then choose Unlink Slice from the Optimize pop-up menu.
• To unlink all slices in an image, choose Unlink All Slices from the Optimize pop-up menu.
