In this article I will teach you about the importance of keyboard
shortcuts for Photoshop. There are only a few keyboard shortcuts that
you need to diligently memorize but this effort will pay off huge
dividends in streamlining your workflow and enhancing the sheer
enjoyment of working with Photoshop!
One question that I hear repeated over and over is why is there not a
multiple undo option for Photoshop like other standard computer
programs. Well, there is such a feature in Photoshop. It's just that
Photoshop's intellectual model is based upon the history palette. In
most software programs, you can continuously press Ctrl-Z (Command-Z
for Macintosh users) to undo the offending error. Sometimes you're
left in the lurch because you can't undo the undo! With Photoshop,
this command is called "step backward" on the edit menu. The keystroke
command is Alt-Ctrl-Z. If you feel that you've gone too far you can
"step forward" which is Shift-Crtl-Z. This is the same principle as
the History Palette but it's great to know that when you're immersed
in your project and you don't necessarily want to fumble through your
menus or palettes to take immediate action!
Here are a few other standard menu shortcuts, which are common to a
lot of applications but ones you really should know:
Ctl-N = New file Ctl-O = Open file Ctl-S = Save file Ctl-C, X, V =
Copy, Cut, Paste
Here is another killer shortcut, when you are working with the brush
tool, how do you usually increase your brush size? Do you usually go
up to the brush menu bar and scrub the slider left and right? This
step always annoyed me because it completely breaks my concentration
not to mention my creativity. Next time you have to use the brush
tool, experiment with the  key (the right bracket next to the .
Here are some other shortcuts that will rocket propel your workflow:
Ctl-Space = Zoom in Ctl-Alt-Space = Zoom out v = move tool t = Text
tool
