Configurator is a utility that enables the easy creation of panels (palettes) for use in Adobe Photoshop\u00ae CS4. Specifically, Configurator makes it easy to drag and drop tools, menu items, scripts, actions, and other objects into a panel design, then export the results for use inside Photoshop. Configurator is great for any Photoshop user who\u2019d like to customize the application interface, without having to learn Flash\/Flex\/ActionScript. It\u2019s particularly suited to authors, trainers, and other experts who\u2019d like to create panels that make Photoshop easier to use, and who\u2019d like to share those panels with others.
