Join Deke McClelland for an in-depth discussion in this video 487 Editing type inside a nested smart object, part of Deke's Techniques.
- In this movie,…we're going to take that high resolution…ICE TYPE effect from the previous movie…and we are going to edit the text…because, yes, this type is still a 100% live.…And we're going to do so by burrowing our way…into the nested smart object.…And so the first thing you want to do…is double-click on the smart object thumbnail…here inside the Layers panel.…And that will open the parent smart object,…the one to which we applied four passes…of the Wind filter along with minimum…in order to increase the thickness of the icicles.…And now, you want to double-click…on that smart object thumbnail…in order to open the image…that contains the editable type…as well as this vector-based shape layer.…
Now I'm not going to need…this shape layer anymore,…but I hate to get rid of it…because they take up just so little room…inside Photoshop files.…So I figure we might as well keep it…just in case we need it layer.…So just go ahead and turn that layer off.…And that's one of the great things about smart objects.…They are, in fact, independent layered compositions…
