Faster Color Labeling Shortcut

 

By default, the shortcuts for applying a color label require you to hold down the Command key (PC: Control key), so you’d press Command-6 for Red, Command-7 for Yellow, etc. (PC: Control-6, -7, etc.). But if you find yourself using color labels a lot, you can change it so it only takes one key—the number, rather than Command/Control. Just press Command-K (PC: Control-K) to go to the Bridge Preferences, click on Labels (from the list on the left side of the dialog), and then turn off the checkbox for Require the Command Key (PC: Control Key) to Apply Labels and Ratings.

Viewing and Basking in your Image

When I’m done working with an image, I like to sit and admire it (hey, I spent six hours working on it, I should). To do that, I hit the Tab key, then hit the F key three times. This hides all of the panels and toolbars and lets you see the image by itself surrounded by black. To get back to regular mode, press the F key and the Tab key one more time.
