Photoshop CS6 Windows shortcuts





Although I only used Photoshop CS6 on Windows during a brief period, luckily the shortcuts are quite similar to the ones in the previous versions. Let’s see which are the most important.

• Open File – This is where all starts from – opening a picture. Do this by pressing Ctrl + O.

• Create document – If you have no picture to open, create a new document by pressing Ctrl + N.

• Zooming in and out – You do this by pressing the Ctrl button and the plus and minus keys. You can also press Ctrl and use the scroll click on a mouse to zoom both ways.

• Save for the web - This is one of the key shortcuts I use most often. Alt + Ctrl + Shirt + S will always take you to the “Save for the web” box. Keep in mind that you can press the first three keys in any order you wish – the shortcut will still work.

• Transform layer - If you wish to transform the active layer, all you have to do is press Ctrl + T.

• Edit key shortcuts - If you want to customize the keyboard shortcuts, all you have to do is press Alt + Shift + Ctrl + K.

• Preferences – Ctrl + K will always take you to the Preferences menu.

• Levels - If you edit pictures, accessing the levels box is something you do often. From now on, do it by pressing Ctrl + L.

• Curves – Ctrl + M will allow you to quickly edit the Curves.

• Hue/Saturation - To edit this, press Ctrl + U.

• Color Balance – Color Balance is another thing very useful for photo manipulation. Ctrl + B is the shortcut for this.

• Desaturate – If you quickly want to desaturate, press Ctrl + Shift + U.

• Image size – Another of my personal favorites is Ctrl + Alt + I.

• New Layer – Creating a new layer can simply be done by pressing Shift + Ctrl + N.

• Liquify – If you use the Liquify tools often, Shift + Ctrl + X should be your best friend.

• Invert - Inverting the colors in Photoshop on Windows can simply be done by using the Ctrl + I shortcut.

• Fit on screen – Fitting the image on your screen is simply done by pressing Ctrl + 0.

• Ruler – You might not always want the ruler on, especially if you have a small screen, therefore keeping in mind Ctrl + R could be useful.

• Show grid - You can show or hide the grid by pressing Ctrl + ‘

• Show guides – If you want to quickly show or hide the guides, simply press Ctrl + ;

• Locking guides – If you work with guides and want to lock them, Alt + Ctrl + ; will do the job.

• Brush size – If you want to increase or decrease the brush size, [ and ] will do the job very quickly.

• Brush hardness – If you want to modify the hardness of the brush, Shift + [ and Shift + ] will do the trick.

• Different Tools (where starred, it means pressing “Shift” and the respective key will help you cycle through different tools of the same type)
