As you edit photos for your client's magazine, it is important to understand which types
of editing are destructive and which are non-destructive. Match the appropriate editing
method to the scenarios below. - Answers -The following are examples of non-
destructive editing:
Masking: Masks are non-destructive because they can be re-edited without affecting the
original pixels they hide.
Using adjustment layers: Adjustment layers apply adjustments on a separate layer,
leaving the original image layer intact.
Transforming Smart Objects: Scaling, rotating, or warping won't overwrite original file
data when using Smart Objects.
The following are examples of destructive editing:
Making adjustments using the Image > Adjustments menu: Unlike the Adjustments
panel, adjustments made through the Image > Adjustments menu are considered
destructive because they do not apply an adjustment layer automatically.
Using the Clone Stamp tool: Using the Clone Stamp tool can be done non-destructively
but only if you create a separate adjustment layer first. Using the Clone Stamp tool
directly on the original image does alter the image data.
