The Settings screen

Layers

Reset to 100% | Leave as placed
default:"Reset to 100%"
With Reset to 100%, Create new document bakes every placed smart object at the end so its scale reads 100%. The image looks the same. With Leave as placed, smart objects keep the scale they were placed at.
Smart objects | Linked smart objects
default:"Smart objects"
Smart objects store the render inside the PSD. Linked smart objects link to the render file on disk. The PSD stays small, but the files must stay where they are.Baking embeds linked smart objects, so new documents still get embedded ones while Reset to 100% is on. The screen reminds you of this.
File name | Element name
default:"File name"
File name keeps Photoshop’s default name, for example cam01.Reflection.png. Element name uses the element’s name, for example Reflection. Multimatte and luma layers always keep their file name, since it holds the nametags.

Masks

R, G, B
default:"All on"
Which multimatte channels become masks. Turn off any you never use. The other channels keep their tags.
# | $ | & | @ | %
default:"#"
The character that starts a nametag in multimatte file names and names the mask targets (#Wood, $Wood…). The example below the picker shows the result.
Manage render elements opens the Render elements list.
