to undo and redo steps, as well as save versions of your image while you work. In this

Click the History panel icon ( ) that is visible in the Essentials workspace. If you
cannot locate it, choose Window > History.
Selecting the History panel.
Each row in the History panel represents a history state (or step). You can click back
on earlier states to undo steps that you have taken, or redo by clicking the grayed-
out history state. Keep in mind that if you step back in history and then complete a
new step, all the gray history states disappear. This history default can be changed by
selecting History Options from the History panel menu and checking Allow Non-
Linear History.
