0.966 -> few shortcuts to use in Photoshop
3.399 -> that will speed up your game
4.699 -> and you're going to love it.
5.899 -> Let's get straight into it.
7.466 -> Control plus J.
9.233 -> It allows you to duplicate
10.866 -> any layer
12.033 -> Instead of you
12.433 -> having to right click on the layer
14.166 -> and then click on duplicate here.
16.466 -> You can simply go by control
18.399 -> as the like.
19.899 -> So and then you get
21.033 -> duplicate to Now I have duplicated
22.999 -> like I just moved
24.433 -> layer straight away.
25.966 -> What I also like to do is
27.199 -> I will just quickly drag
28.833 -> drag layer
29.499 -> into the plus
30.199 -> icon and I will duplicate it
32.066 -> by the controll
32.733 -> plus “J” is my go to.
34.133 -> More often than not,
34.833 -> if I'm not dragging the number
36.799 -> to control. Plus.
38.233 -> Now you want to move something.
39.466 -> And more often than not,
40.266 -> if you have a lot of layer,
41.733 -> what can we really just end up
43.433 -> clicking on any particular layer
44.866 -> and then moving down
45.933 -> to transform
46.733 -> something you can select that,
47.999 -> particularly like, for instance,
49.299 -> if I have this layer selected,
50.699 -> if I do want to see
52.533 -> that it does transform
54.166 -> and I can quickly move that layer only
56.699 -> speed up my work, right, speed up.
58.599 -> Now, there's one thing you.
60.399 -> Let me say,
61.033 -> you have this here
62.133 -> and you have something tiny
63.333 -> that you want to probably adjust.
64.799 -> Okay.
64.999 -> What you can do is
65.933 -> you can look for the layer.
67.399 -> Select that layer. Okay?
68.566 -> And then head to them. What?
70.566 -> That is their layers panel
71.733 -> All right.
72.166 -> And when you get really
72.799 -> I can do this
73.766 -> with one thing,
74.333 -> hold Alt.
75.166 -> and click on that
75.999 -> particular layer.
77.333 -> That layer,
78.033 -> click on it is going to happen.
79.799 -> It's going to zoom in
80.833 -> and bring that particularly
81.933 -> into 100, but into full view.
83.999 -> Then that where you come from,
84.933 -> then work on that
85.599 -> particular light.
86.133 -> This helps me when
87.799 -> I'm working on a lot of graphics
89.266 -> and then I have this particular
90.766 -> tiny thing,
91.699 -> okay, somewhere
92.399 -> that I'm zooming in
93.666 -> and zooming out to my
94.766 -> if I just hold out and select that
97.833 -> it brings that particular item
100.033 -> into full view for me.
101.033 -> And then I can actually
102.333 -> I just expand it and then get back
104.766 -> the controls there to get back to
106.133 -> I am is very handy
108.166 -> if you are doing nothing
108.933 -> all and click on value
110.266 -> and then from there
110.999 -> you can see it.
111.633 -> Let me explain it
112.266 -> just a little bit more like so.
114.566 -> And then
115.799 -> it will work
116.499 -> if I select this part of
118.266 -> this group
119.033 -> and I press
119.633 -> or then click on
121.133 -> it will go into full view for me
123.433 -> if I'm working
124.166 -> and I've always
125.833 -> compressed, always
126.599 -> in select orbit,
127.966 -> particularly, just explain
129.033 -> that for me. So great.
130.133 -> You have no idea.
131.433 -> All right then.
132.499 -> This is control shift
134.599 -> Let me relax, Ctrl, shift, alt,
138.199 -> E
139.833 -> countries, if all three countries
142.533 -> if all.
143.533 -> Let me tell you what
144.166 -> I've done for them
144.933 -> and get them undone.
145.799 -> If I hold control shift all
148.033 -> and then e
149.499 -> okay, it creates a new layer.
151.833 -> But what happens is
152.599 -> that is for
153.399 -> them is going to look at
154.466 -> what's on your screen right now.
156.733 -> I mean, what is on your work
158.166 -> in space?
159.099 -> And it's going to duplicate that
160.633 -> everything okay
162.499 -> and stamp it on to honestly,
163.999 -> I like to
165.766 -> so if you have thousands of layers
167.633 -> is going to just
168.699 -> it's like a screenshot
169.533 -> of everything you have
170.633 -> and then it's
170.966 -> going to make a new layer
172.733 -> on top like, like that.
173.999 -> So if I, if, if you want
174.833 -> my last one here,
175.933 -> you can see
176.366 -> I have a newly
177.033 -> I and if I my group you can see
179.666 -> this new layer is just there
181.066 -> with a set of everything.
183.533 -> It's so amazing
184.499 -> you have no idea up
185.799 -> unless you have control shift or W
188.333 -> and what does that do that
189.466 -> it allows you
190.333 -> to export the control shift
191.533 -> always and w right.
193.766 -> These are my go to.
194.799 -> I only export something.
195.833 -> I don't have to go to file
197.966 -> and export and then export ask
200.566 -> no no I don't have
201.833 -> control shift or w and then
205.066 -> straight trade away I
205.866 -> want to export if I go again
207.699 -> quote received or w
209.433 -> and then it comes and I export
211.833 -> that when we import meat. Right?
213.633 -> Me control
214.399 -> you don't know controls data on do
216.299 -> is everywhere in every app
217.933 -> for the same thing
218.899 -> control
219.899 -> that does on that something
222.266 -> and then control shift
223.333 -> that will redo control
225.233 -> that undo control shift that redo.
227.566 -> If you have a couple of items
228.899 -> and put in a group
229.733 -> you will control
230.566 -> and it groups them. Okay.
232.466 -> So if I for instance, let me one
235.733 -> group is so this
237.366 -> this group two
237.999 -> is already in a group
238.833 -> if I want control shift and G
240.733 -> and to own
241.333 -> group them
242.099 -> all right
242.666 -> and then what
243.166 -> I can do that
243.533 -> I can select the first one
245.133 -> and then go all the way
245.999 -> down to the last one horse
247.233 -> if that's the last one
248.433 -> that I want to select.
249.466 -> All between All right.
251.166 -> And I do control
251.999 -> and then it will go
252.999 -> that control shift
254.433 -> team on groups control team groups
257.733 -> when we right.
259.466 -> So these are just
260.566 -> some of the stuff
261.133 -> guys that I use in Photoshop.
262.366 -> You can still use them
263.266 -> and just watch how it is
264.133 -> going to speed up your game.
265.099 -> If you like this, double thumbs up
266.733 -> and make sure you subscribe
267.633 -> to determine if you haven't,
268.666 -> and then I'll catch
269.333 -> in the very next one.
