Change the Hardness of a Brush on the Fly

 

You probably know that when the Brush tool ( B ) is selected, you can decrease or increase the brush size by pressing the Left Bracket ( [ ) or Right Bracket ( ] ) key, respectively.  But at times it’s useful to change the brush’s Hardness setting as well.  To do this, just press Shift-[ (the Left Brace { ) to reduce the hardness by 25% or press Shift - ] (the Right Brace } ) to increase it by 25%.

Open in Camera Raw from Bridge

You can open RAW images in Camera Raw right from Bridge in Photoshop CS3. This frees up Photoshop to continue working on your files while they’re being processed in Camera Raw. Just select one or more images in Bridge, Control-click (PC: Right-click) on them, and choose Open in Camera Raw. This will open the image(s) in Bridge’s Camera Raw rather than Photoshop. You can also use the keyboard shortcut Command-R (PC: Ctrl-R).
