60). Navigator and Action Tips [Note 1][↑]
Many times, using the keyboard to control the navigation device is faster than using the mouse. Here are some common uses
Navigator hotkey:
Home = To the upper left corner of the canvas
End = to the bottom right corner of the canvas
PageUp = Scroll the canvas up and move a page
PageDown = Scroll the canvas down and move a page
Ctrl+PageUp = Scroll the canvas to the left for one page
Ctrl+PageDown=Scroll the canvas to the right for one page
Shift+PageUp = Scroll the canvas up by 10 pixels
Shift+PageDown = Scroll the canvas down by 10 pixels
Ctrl+Shift+PageUp = Scroll the canvas to the left by 10 pixels
Ctrl+Shift+PageDown=Scroll the canvas to the right by 10 pixels
61). Use Ctrl+Tab/Ctrl+F6 to switch between multiple documents (or you can also use the Window menu).
convenient!
62). Use the recovery command [F12] (File/Revert ) to restore the current document to the state it was last saved. police
tell! In Photoshop 5.0, the recovery command will clear the history at the same time! This means that once the recovery command is used
All changes will be lost after the last save! Photoshop 5.5 is correcting this.
63).CHANNEL also has its default corresponding hotkey. This adds and subtracts between selections/masks in the form of storage channel
The intersecting operation becomes very fast and simple. Here are some common patterns:
RGB color CMYK color Index color
Ctrl+“~”= RGB
Ctrl+1 = Red
Ctrl+2 = Green
Ctrl+3 = Blue
Ctrl+4 = Other channels
Ctrl+9 = other channels
Ctrl+“~” = CMYK
Ctrl+1 = cyan
Ctrl+2 = Haiben
Ctrl+3 = yellow
Ctrl+4 = Black
Ctrl+5 = Other channels
Ctrl+9 = other channels
Ctrl+1 = Index
Ctrl+2 = other channels
Ctrl+9 = other channels
For example: To create a selection to represent the intersection of channel 7 and channel 9, first press Ctrl+Alt+7 (add channel 7)
Load as selection) and press by Ctrl+Alt+Shift+9 (and intersect with channel 9 again).
64). Hold down the Ctrl key and drag and drop in the proxy preview area of the navigation device to update the viewing area of the current document file.
domain. Tip: Hold down the Shift key when dragging the display box in the proxy preview area to lock the direction of movement in landscape or

68). You can use the marquee tool [M]( Marquee Tool ) or the lasso tool [L] ( Polygonal Lasso ) to select
Drag the zone from one document to another. Hold down the Shift key when dragging the selection area or layer from one document to another
It can be centered on the top of the target document. Tip: If the size (size) of the source file and the destination file are the same,
The dragged element will be placed in the same location as the source file (rather than in the center of the canvas). Note
Meaning: If the destination document contains a selection, the dragged element will be placed in the center of the selection.
69). When you want to move multiple layers between different documents, first link them, and then you can use mobile workers
Drag multiple layers between documents at the same time. Note: You cannot drag multiple layers to another document at the same time in the Layers panel (
Even if they are linked together)--This will only move the selected layer.
70). To orchestrate multiple layers into a group, the fastest way is to link them first, and then select the marshalling chain
Connect the layer command [Ctrl+G] ( Layer/Group Linked ). After that, you can unlink as you wish.
Note: This technique can also be used to merge multiple visible layers (
Because when the current layer is linked to other layers, the "group with previous layer command" will become
"Group Linked Layers (Group Linked)" command).
71). There is a clever way to rearrange multiple layers at the same time (in the layer panel): first link the desired layer
Group [Ctrl+G] ( Layer/Group with Previous ) Get up and drag it to a new ground in the layer panel
The party cancels the grouping again.
72). To create a copy file for the current historical status or snapshot (Window/Show History) you can:
a ) Click the “Create a new document file from the current status (New Document )” button
b) Select a new document from the History panel menu
c ) Drag the current status (or snapshot) to the "Create a new file from the current status" button
d ) Right-click the desired status (or snapshot) and select a new document from the pop-up menu
73). Drag a certain historical state of the current picture in the historical state to the window of another picture to change the purpose picture
content.
74). Hold down the Alt key and click on any historical state (except the current and recent states) to copy it. Then he was reinstated
The state of system becomes the current (recent) state.
75). Press and hold Alt to drag the steps in the action to copy it to another action.

62). Use the recovery command [F12] (File/Revert ) to restore the current document to the state it was last saved. police
tell! In Photoshop 5.0, the recovery command will clear the history at the same time! This means that once the recovery command is used
All changes will be lost after the last save! Photoshop 5.5 is correcting this.
63).CHANNEL also has its default corresponding hotkey. This adds and subtracts between selections/masks in the form of storage channel
The intersecting operation becomes very fast and simple. Here are some common patterns:
RGB color CMYK color Index color
Ctrl+“~”= RGB
Ctrl+1 = Red
Ctrl+2 = Green
Ctrl+3 = Blue
Ctrl+4 = Other channels
Ctrl+9 = other channels
Ctrl+“~” = CMYK
Ctrl+1 = cyan
Ctrl+2 = Haiben
Ctrl+3 = yellow
Ctrl+4 = Black
Ctrl+5 = Other channels
Ctrl+9 = other channels
Ctrl+1 = Index
Ctrl+2 = other channels
Ctrl+9 = other channels
For example: To create a selection to represent the intersection of channel 7 and channel 9, first press Ctrl+Alt+7 (add channel 7)
Load as selection) and press by Ctrl+Alt+Shift+9 (and intersect with channel 9 again).
64). Hold down the Ctrl key and drag and drop in the proxy preview area of the navigation device to update the viewing area of the current document file.

Drag the zone from one document to another. Hold down the Shift key when dragging the selection area or layer from one document to another
It can be centered on the top of the target document. Tip: If the size (size) of the source file and the destination file are the same,
The dragged element will be placed in the same location as the source file (rather than in the center of the canvas). Note
Meaning: If the destination document contains a selection, the dragged element will be placed in the center of the selection.
69). When you want to move multiple layers between different documents, first link them, and then you can use mobile workers
Drag multiple layers between documents at the same time. Note: You cannot drag multiple layers to another document at the same time in the Layers panel (
Even if they are linked together)--This will only move the selected layer.
70). To orchestrate multiple layers into a group, the fastest way is to link them first, and then select the marshalling chain
Connect the layer command [Ctrl+G] ( Layer/Group Linked ). After that, you can unlink as you wish.
Note: This technique can also be used to merge multiple visible layers (
Because when the current layer is linked to other layers, the "group with previous layer command" will become
"Group Linked Layers (Group Linked)" command).
71). There is a clever way to rearrange multiple layers at the same time (in the layer panel): first link the desired layer
Group [Ctrl+G] ( Layer/Group with Previous ) Get up and drag it to a new ground in the layer panel
The party cancels the grouping again.
72). To create a copy file for the current historical status or snapshot (Window/Show History) you can:
