Selection Altering
In any of the selection tools, holding the Shift key will change your tool so that it adds to the current selection. Holding the Alt key removes from the selection.
Quick Zoom In
Holding Ctrl + spacebar brings up the zoom in tool.
Universal Text Change
Link your Text layers together in the Layers Palette. Hold Shift as you make changes to one of the Layers. (Font, color, size, etc…) The changes can be seen in all linked Layers.
Try The Alt/Option Key
Try pressing the Alt/Option key in any dialog box you have open. Watch the buttons, most of the time they will change. (OK changes to Reset, etc.)
Transform Bounding Box
If you’re trying to transform a layer that is larger than your canvas, you lose your bounding box edges. Press Ctrl/Command - 0 and Photoshop automatically zooms so you can see the bounding box edges.
Sub-Tool Select
Usually pressing [Shift] + the shortcut key for whatever tool you want, will cycle through the sub-tools for that tool.
Stop Using Lens Flare
Seriously. Don’t use it ever.
Quick Open
Double-click on the background in Photoshop to bring up the Open dialog box. Doesn’t work on Mac.
Quick Full Screen View
Want to see what your image looks like alone, in a dark dark setting, maybe with some candlelight? Press the F key twice, then press Tab to hide your palettes.
