    What most video miss and even on Adobe help, is when you assign a smart object to a layer and right click to edit content, is the part where it opens in another document to do the editing and save and go back to resume your work. I was creating a mock-up for my trifold brochure and learned about placing graphics on each panel through smart object. You explained it well, thank you 👍

    I used to use it all the time, but since recent versions it’s doesn’t work anymore do you why ? When i open a smart object, it’s not opening a psb or psd file but a jpg file (since it’s a picture, but before it’s was working). When i have more than one layers it’s request to be rasterized when i want to saved my changes and go back to the main. But if so then smart object become useless. Do you have a solution ?

      Thank you so much 🙏. PSD if it’s a super simple edit, but for anything hefty, always a PSB (large document format) to ensure I don’t hit a size limit. Hope that helps 😊

    Hello Jess, thanks for this video. When I open a file as a smart object from lightroom in photoshop in order to clean up, after pressing edit contents the only thing that pops up is the camera raw. Once I close this I can't seem to be able to use any tools just like before. Is there any workaround this? I am using photoshop 2022. Thanks in advance!

    • @ThatPhotographySpot

      Open in photoshop not as a smart object and then convert to a smart object and that should work 😊

    I open the .DNG file, which opens into the Camera Raw Tool, I click open from Camera Raw and then it opens in photoshop. Then I converted the .DNG file to a smart object. Then I dbl. click layer and it does open a new tab/image. I can now use content aware tools and other filters, just as described in your video. But when I close that image and hit save, when requested to, it closes that tab and I see the updates applied to the original DNG file, but I do not see any additional smart layers, like the content aware changes or camera raw filter layers, that allow me to go adjust or remove changes.

    • @ThatPhotographySpot

      Hi there, so if you double click the layer again it should reopen with the adjustments just like before 😊

      If you change something on the document that opens after editing contents, and then press the X on that tab to close it afterwards, you should be given the option to save. Hope that helps 😊
