Photoshop :: Hiding Selections With Keyboard Shortcuts?
Aug 26, 2013
I've been a PSD user since v1.0. I'm on Mac OS-X running CS6 via the cloud.I've realized I cannot stomach anotehr hour of working in PSD using a mouse/stylus to navigate to a drop-down menu, to VIEW > SHOW > SELECTION EDGES in order to temporarily hide the macrhing ants.
Â
I am in disbelief that Adobe has once again messed with keyboard commands which are/were older than the hills!I've visited the EDIT > KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS to add "Cmd + H" to toggle the marching ants (show / hide) but I cannot add that combination of keystrokes.
Â
I've adjusted "Hide Photoshop" to be "Opt+Cmd+H"Â which is working just fine.how to make "Cmd+H" a hide/show command for the marching ants?

I have Photoshop CC through Creative cloud. My keyboard shortcuts stop working, then Photoshop really slows down, then crashes. I've been through Adobe support five times now, and it works for about 1/2 hour, then acts up again.Â

I'd like to assign keyboard shortcuts
Â
Layer panel window
Â
cmd-l : lock selected layer or group
cmd-alt-l: unlock selected layer or group
cmd-alt-c: copy layer style
cmd-alt-v: paste layer style
Â
Copy layer style is listed in the keyboard shortcuts dialog. For some reason it wants to raster shape layers so that's totally unusable.

Keyboard shortcuts will work for a little while, then suddenly stop. I can still select tools 'manually', clicking the icons, but pressing P for the paint brush tool or E for the eraser will have no effect. So far as I can tell this happens at random. It has also been fixing itself at random, after some undetermined amount of time not working, but then it just happens again.Â
Â
'Use shift key for tool switch' is already unchecked in my preferences.

I was madly working along, and suddenly, no keyboard shortcuts worked. I wrestled with this for quite some time. Then I realized that I had two layers selected, instead of one. When I selected only one layer, all my keyboard shortcuts returned and began to operate as normal.
Â
I'm just wondering whether this is a feature to protect the user from unwittingly altering more than one layer at a time, or whether it's a bug?

I have just started using my Photoshop CS6 (64-bit).
Â
I am trying to use Ctrl++ and Ctrl+- to zoom in and out respectively, but nothing happens.
Â
Is there something that I should be doing before starting to use the keyboard shortcuts?

PS: my OS is Win7 Ultimate 64-bit

This is my first post as I've been having a problem with my new Copy of CS2. I previously used PhotoShop 5 which had particular shortcuts which I have been using for years now but since purchasing CS2 I cannot use these shortcuts? I've explored the edit Shortcuts route but alas it doesn't let me change any of the shortcuts and some of them are not even listed. Code:

where I can download a list of shortcuts applicable to a German keyboard? Whilst I'm using an English language version of CS4 (in fact my OS (XP Pro) and all applications are also in English) I'm stuck with a German keyboard out of necessity.

Some of the keyboard shortcuts are not working. Specifically, I'm talking about the shortcut to increase/decreases the brush size.
I found a sheet with all of the Photoshop keyboard shortcuts and it says that the "[" and "]" keys increase and decreases the size of the brush. But it does not work. I made sure the cheat sheet of shortcuts I found were for CS2. So I'm wondering how to fix this problem.

Most shortcuts of mine are working. But some, like print, color settings are not bringing up the appropropriate boxes. And the strange part is that the correct keys are listed in the menu.

I'm running Vista Home Premium SP1 64-bit and PS CS2. I've been running the same copy of CS2 for a long time now but on XP. Now that I'm in Vista, some of the keyboard shortcuts don't seem to work and I'm not sure why. I don't see anything in the FAQ about this, and I -know- they are valid, default shortcuts.
Two examples (I use these all the time since I work with a lot of small icons):
#1. Using the arrow keys to shift the current layer/selection over by 1px (or the Shift+arrow keys combo for 10px) doesn't work anymore.
#2. Using Ctrl + and Ctrl - to zoom in and out of the image does not work anymore.
Anyone have any ideas? Maybe Vista is overriding / intercepting the keys somehow?

I just installed Photoshop CS and except for my tool pallet, all my shortcuts are dead. My actions work but only by actually clicking the action button, not by the asigned keys.

Just got my new copy of PS/CS delivered, and all initally seemed to be well. However, I've noticed certain keyboard shortcuts don't work anymore - namely New > Layer via Copy (CTRL+J) doesn't do anything and neither do the arrow keys for nudge. Very annoying.
I've had a look in the new Keyboard shortcuts menu, and it's all on default settings and appears to be fine.

I can't manage to save and load keyboard shortcuts with PS CS6. I do editing via "edit->keyboard shortcuts" and save the new profile as "Keys.kys". Then if I switch to another profile and back, the changes I made are gone. Also whenever I restart PS, I lose the changes. This is extremely odd, as when I checked the actual "Keys.kys" XML definitions with Notepad++, I can see that the shortcuts are correctly defined there. I also verified that .kys files are not write protected and that they have correct access rights. How on Earth PS can then summon the wrong shortcuts when loading the file?
Â
I even tried searching and replacing every single .kys file in my computer, replacing them with the file with correct keyboard shortcuts, but even so PS doesn't load the changes but uses the defaults.
Â
How to change keyboard shortcuts so that PS loads them on startup? I'm running PS on Windows 7.

I want to know if there is a way to find the unused keyboard short-cuts used by Ps ? Creating a new keyboard short-cut I find myself trying all sorts of combinations and they are always used by another part of Ps.

When looking at the keyboard shortcuts for MAC, the 100% zoom is down as command alt '0', yet it is showing in the dropdown list as 'n'?
Â
Is there a way of changing the shortcuts. Previously the 100% zoom was simply command (apple) '0', which is now fit to page. how to change the shortcuts?

I notice that some of the shortcuts/hot keys don't work. For example, one basic hot key that does not work is the F7-key. The F7-key opens and closes the layers palette.
Â
Another hot key that does not work is the spacebar. My teacher taught me to hold the spacebar down when you want to move the canvas around. When I am in handtool mode I hold the spacebar down, I then apply pressure on my laptops touchpad, I then slide my finger across my laptops touchpad in order to try and move the canvas, but the canvas does not budge.
Â
Some shortcuts work. For example, tapping the F-key multiple times will expand and reduce the size of Photoshop.
Â
Closing my web browser did not resolve the problem. Updating the software did not resolve the problem.

I have an issue with the behaviour of the alpha channels and layers.I have upgraded to the latest version.I have tried resetting the preferences per Julianne Cost's Key Board Short Cut (KBSC) method. None of the preferences were reset.I still have all my saved workspaces available etc etc.
Â
After making a selection in the channels pallet and saving using the "Save selection as channel" button I have what appears to be a bug when trying to import the selection into the layers panel.
Â
I make the selection. Save it as a channel. Make the selection active.Then switch over to the layers pallet. I then try to copy the selection across using the KBSC 'Cmd J'.On the first attempt I only get an exact copy of the layer (in a single layer document).
Â
However, when I use the same KBSC a second time (immediately after the first attempt - no changes) the third layer created has my selection as masked.So after the process in a single layer document my layers stack up as follows (I have layed them out as if in the layers pallet).
Â
-Layer 1 (with just my selection)
-Background Copy (an exact copy)
-Background (with lock icon).

Keyboard shortcuts are working sporadically. For instance, when using select all, copy, paste shortcuts to copy from one image to another in a different tab it can take 2 presses of the keyboard to get them to work. This also makes actions unusable.
Â
Using MacPro 2.66 Nehalem 8 core, OS 10.6.8, 32GB RAM, ATI Radeon HD 4870
Â
Have tried:
Â
Adjusting Performance in preferences -currently 25062 memory usage, history states 20, cache levels8, cache level 1024, use graphics processor ticked. Have changed all of these settings with no effect on problem.
Â
Closed all other programs(including all browsers).
Â
Removed any plug-ins. Closed flash panels namely mini bridge.Â
Â
Having to revert to an older version of Photoshop at the moment as dodgy Keyboard shortcuts make CS6 unusable. Also have a problem with Camera Raw which I have raised in another Discussion that makes it unusable also.

i use Photoshop on mac in English and Korean, and switch them all the time.
Â
Even if I set the language to Korean, the application menu commands work, for example, Cmd+T. As for Tool menu commands, it only works in English setting. So, I have to switch the language setting first every moment.
