Nemesis Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 When I cut a certain section out of a picture, is there a way to have that selection 'deselect' automatically? It's kinda annoying having to click 'select/deselect' from the menu every time.... Quote 'One Aim' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polygonius Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 AFAIK not, but you can set a shortcut for this (and afaik for all stuff which you find in any menu) Properties > shortcuts > First tab: Photo / Second Tab: Selection and then "deselect" Quote OSX 12.5 / iMac Retina 27" / Radeon Pro 580X / Metall: on! --- WWG1WGA WW!
