In the midst of all the excitement here at Improved Images there is nothing like getting back to the tranquility of Photoshop’s many keyboard shortcuts. After the War and Peace nature of some of the previous ‘shortcuts’ it is time to return to the fast and snappy.
It is an interesting fact that some of the default keyboard shortcuts within Photoshop CS4 do more than one thing depending upon the context. Here is one example.
The simple Backspace/Delete key can do many things including: -
1/ When using the magnetic lasso tool it will delete the last anchor point in sequence
2/ In the Layers panel it will delete the selected layer/layer groups
3/ In the Curves panel it will delete the selected point on the curve. If no points are selected, it will delete the entire Curves adjustment layer
Why not try it?
Great site. A lot of useful information here. I’m sending it to some friends!
