Default colour short-cut


Recommended Posts

Very, very easy one!

 

In photoshop you can click D and it sets the foreground/background colours to black and white. Useful if you've been painting in another colour and you want to do mask work.

 

If you wanted to go an extra step, you could allow setting of a range of fg/bg colour pairs that can be selected/rotated.

Although there's no default shortcut, you can go to 'Preferences... > Keyboard Shortcuts > Photo > Miscellaneous' and define a shortcut for 'Set Fill to Black and White'.

Ooh. Thanks, Alfred!

 

I should have spotted this -- I already have Ctrl-H added to hide marquee.
