1. Hiding layer styles

It would be great if I can fold this kind of information, or hide it.

It would be great if I can make some layers visable, and some layers hidden. Not all hidden or all visable.

 

2. Hiding Guides

I ususally work with guides on, but sometimes I want to it to be off for a second.

I want it to be hidden temporarily, but currently I have to delete all the guides and make it all over again.

Hey, @Hae Yun Jung. Welcome to the Photoshop Community. Thanks for raising the idea. 

 

Right next to the FX icon, you'll find a small arrow that you can click on to collapse or expand the list of Effects. 

 

For Hiding guides, there are a few ways you can approach this yourself. 

 

1 - Press CTRL/CMD + H to hide & show all Extras, or use the CTRL/CMD + ; shortcut. 

 

 

2—If this does not work, you can record an action with a menu item and assign a Function key on your keyboard. This is the same as above, but with extra steps.

In addition to what has been said, you can also create and use Layer Comps to hide/show the same set of layers, effects, and/or position.

      With one or more layers selected, use Ctrl/Cmd + , (comma) to toggle layer visibility off/on.
