Okay, we all know this program is much, much more than meets the eye?? Photoshop is known for having many, many unknown secrets, or that mysterious dark side that is learned only after much, much experience, or after reading a good how too book? Anyone here care to share some incredible "easter egg" or "function" they have found that they did NOT expect to find when it comes to using this fascinating program??? Please, do tell us?? ;-)

Well... If you hold down the option key (alt on PCs?) when you choose any color correction option (Brightness & Contrast, HSL, Variations) the dialog will open with the settings you used last for that command.

LOTS of keyboard shortcuts. I certainly don't use them all, but the ones I do use often enough to remember them are: Ctrl-A: Select All Ctrl-D: Deselect Ctrl-E: Merge down (Merges current layer with one below)Ctrl-H: Hide selection border Ctrl-L: Adjust Levels and of course: Crtl-C: Copy to clipboard Ctrl-X: Cut to clipboard Ctrl-V: Paste to a new layer Page Up and Page Down: Scroll the view up or down 1 page Shift-Page Up and Shift-Page Down: Scroll up or down 10 pixels. Ctrl-Click on a layer thumbnail in the Layers Palette selects all non-transparent pixels on the layer. There are many, many more, I just don't ordinarily use them. If you copy a selection to the clipboard, then create a new file, the default file size and resolution will be that of the copied selection, so the selection will paste into it exactly. Gromit
