'Ask Dave' week nine… I get tons of questions each week, I respond as quickly as possible, and this is week number nine of answering them here too. If you have questions you can email me at Learn@DaveShumway.com.
Question:
From John...
What are the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3 key commands, and what ones do you actually use?
Answer:
Every Lightroom 3 key command is availible online here.
What ones do I use... not as many as I should.
Remember the commands I list here are for Mac OS, if you use a Windows box (you should buy a Mac), or know that; "Command" is "Control" and "Option" is "Alt."
Here they are, in no particular order:
- Convert to grayscale - "V"
- Edit in Photoshop - "Command + E
- Paste settings from previous photo - "Command + Option + V"
- Reset a slider - "Double-click slider name"
- Toggle between Loupe and 1:1 Zoom preview - "Spacebar or Z"
- Undo - "Command + Z"
- Redo - "Command + Shift + Z"
- Convert to grayscale - "V"
- Increase/decrease brush size - "[ / ]"
- Increase/decrease brush feathering - "Shift + ] / Shift + ["
- Remove selected photo(s) from catalog - "Option + Delete"
- Go to next/previous photo in the Filmstrip - "Right Arrow/Left Arrow"
- Set star rating - "1 - 5" (Add "Shift" to go to next photo)
- Remove star rating - "0" (Add "Shift" to go to next photo)
- Assign a red label - "6" (Add "Shift" to go to next photo)
- Assign a yellow label - "7" (Add "Shift" to go to next photo)
- Assign a green label - "8" (Add "Shift" to go to next photo)
- Assign a blue label - "9" (Add "Shift" to go to next photo)
- Add keywords - "Command + K"
- Edit keywords - "Command + Shift + K"
- Check spelling - "Command + ;"
Oh I love to hold "Option" while adjusting my sharpening (do it and you will know why).
This post has caused me to order a keyboard cover with all of the LR3 keyboard shortcuts/commands on it. (Thanks B&H)
