Lose Those Annoying Numbers In The Upper Left-Hand Corner

We get more letters from people who ask us, “How do I get rid of that number in the top left-hand corner of my image?” This little puppy appears if you accidentally click on the Slice tool in the Toolbox. Even if you notice your error and immediately switch to another tool, it’s too late. The “slice number” is already in place. To make it go away, go under the View menu, under Show, and choose Slices. Then try not to accidentally click on the Slice tool again. (Sorry, I just felt like scolding somebody. You know, just for fun.)
