#ALL SHORTCUT KEYS FOR ADOBE PHOTOSHOP CS3 FREE#
Ctrl + T (Free Transform) - Brings up the free transform tool for resizing, rotating, and skewing the image using a dragable outline.Ctrl + A (Select All) - Creates a selection around the entire canvas.
Adding Shift to this combo will ungroup layers when the grouped layer is selected. Ctrl + G (Group Layers) - This command groups selected layers in the layer tree.This also works with adjustment layers by automatically applying the selection to the mask. Side Note: When working with selections, they can be applied to a layer as a mask simply by adding a new layer mask using the little box-with-a-circle-inside icon at the bottom of the layer palette.Ctrl + D (Deselect) - After working with your selection, use this combo to discard it.Also a good tool when working with mask creation. Ctrl + I (Invert Selection) - Select the opposite of what is already selected.Ctrl + H (Hide Selection Lines) - When working with selections, use this command to hide the “marching ants” while keeping the selection.Also, use the Ctrl + Backspace to fill with background color and Alt + Backspace to fill with foreground color. Shift + Backspace (Fill Dialog) - Good time saver when working with masks.Caps Lock (Toggle Cross Hairs) - Switch between the standard tool icon and a set of precision cross hairs.
If a selection is made, this command will only copy the selected area into the new layer.

F (Cycle Screen Modes) - Switch between normal screen, full screen with task bar without title bar, and full screen with black background.Also, use the Ctrl modifier to zoom in, and the Alt modifier to zoom out. SPACEBAR (Temporary Hand Tool) - Hold down the spacebar to temporarily bring up the hand tool so you can move around while doing those zoomed-in edits. In the last post, apparently I left out THE most useful shortcut in Photoshop. So to start things off, I’m admitting defeat. Again, I’m using the commands for Photoshop CS3 running on Windows, but most of these should also work with Photoshop CS2 and some versions lower.
