I love Keyboard shortcuts, and this is a great thread.

These are some of my faves (Mac first, PC 2nd)

-Cmd/Cntrl U: Hue/Sat dialog box
-Cmd/Cntrl H: Hide (It hides everything in the View menu, and with the type tool selected also hides that selection over the text so you can see what you're doing.
-To quickly change the opacity of a layer, simply type in a number; e.g. 5 for 50% opacity.
-To temporarily switch to the move tool, hold down Cmd/Cntrl. Release to go back to the tool you were using.
-Most people know that Opt/Alt-Del and Cmd/Cntrl-Del fills with the foreground and background color, respectively. But to get to the fill dialog box quickly (for example, if you need to fill with a pattern) press Shift-Del.
-If you use the color swatch palette, you know that choosing a swatch changes the foreground color. To change the background color instead, Opt/Alt click on the swatch.

Hi

How can i browse the blending modes rather than shift+alt+Latter ?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

( My Shortcut : Ctrl + Alt +# : Load selection )

Click inside the blending box and use your arrow keys to scroll through the different modes or use shift + - or shift + +

Dazco (BTW, welcome) try shift+tab, and you'll hide all palettes but the toolbar, useful if you don't know the tool shortcuts yet...

Gaussian ... thanks for the click inside the blending box and arrow shortcut ... handy ... btw ... I clicked in the wrong spot ( not unusual for me ) and "discovered" much to my joy and amasement [stuned] that if I arrow up/down whilst clicked anywhere in the 'grey' area of the window that the opacity %age slides up/down [excited] [excited] (noise in background is namvet doing cartwheels around his office ... not a pretty sight I migh add [bustagut] )

BTW .. my all time favourite short cuts just have to be Cntrl C and V 'cos I'm such a shocking typist .... but, hey, I'll take any shortcut going [bustagut] [bustagut]

Here are the ones I use the most:

[ and ] to adjust brush sizes i dont think i could live without that one.
Alt + backspace fills the layer or selection with what ever color you're using.
The mouse scroll wheel to zoom in and out (mouse down zooms in mouse up zooms out) this only works if you dont have a scroll bar on the image though.
I also use this shortcut alot but its a combination mouse/keyboard shortcut: click the create new layer button to create a new layer at the top of your layers list (if it isnt at the top move it) then holding the Alt key click the layer tab and drag down to merge visible list. This merges the visible list into the new layer at the top and keeps all your layers below it. (alt + Ctrl + Shift + E) works to but i think its easier the other way.
I use alot of the above mentioned ones too.
