Use the Channels Toolbox

The Channels toolbox lets you create and manage channels. The palette lists all channels in the image for instance, RGB,

then the individual color channels and finally alpha channels. A thumbnail of the channel's contents appears to the left of

the channel name. There are several buttons in the Channels toolbox for creating a new channel, duplicating a channel,

moving a channel, or deleting a channel.

Each item in the channel list has an eye icon, a thumbnail and a label of the channel. If the eye icon disappears, the

channel is not visible. When we save a channel, the initial state of the channel is invisible. The highlight of the label

represents the channel having an active state. Each image has its red, green, and blue channels as default, and they are

visible and active. You can click on the eye icon to toggle on and off the visible and invisible states. You can also click on the

label to activate or deactivate the channel. For the channel that is not the basic Red, Green, and Blue, it allows one active

channel. However, you can have combination of the Red, Green, and Blue channel to be activated at the same time.
