Hello all. Just getting oriented and learning how to do my usual tasks from my ancient (paid in full) Photoshop and Indesign.

Color Balance has a button "Add Preset" which lets you create a preset color balance adjustment. This is great, except... how do I load that preset in another image I'm working on? I don't see it anywhere.

While I'm at it - though I may make a whole topic of this - I find it really annoying to have to go to the menus and through two or three layers of menu to get to Color Balance, which is the first thing I use on most photos, along with Levels (NOT Auto Levels). Is there a way to put New Color Balance Adjustment Layer onto the toolbar? The Customize Toolbar system seems to have a ridiculously limited collection of commands/buttons to choose from. Literally every command in the program should be available to place there. For that matter, I should be able to create a preset adjustment layer with Color Balance and/or any other adjustments, name it, and turn that into a one-click button.

For this you use the Adjustment panel. If it is not already open, enable it from the Window menu. That panel has individual sections for the different adjustment types so you may need to scroll down to see the Color Balance one. Click on it to show its presets.

Aha! Okay, that helps a lot. Thank you! And it looks like that will stay up, so it should solve the other problem in this instance, though I still want to be able to assign absolutely anything a button on my toolbar.
