Adobe Photoshop Keyboard Shortcuts Part 1

Keys for selecting tools

In Photoshop, shortcuts are customizable by using the Keyboard Shortcuts command. Choose Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts.

Mac OS X users: In ImageReady, when the Use System Shortcuts preference is enabled, certain ImageReady keyboard shortcuts are usurped by OS X keyboard shortcuts. (For example, with the preference on, Command+H hides the application. With the preference off, Command+H shows/hides Extras.) To prevent this, press the Control key in addition to the shortcut or choose ImageReady > Preferences > General and deselect Use System Shortcuts.
