Accessing the black arrow key

[caligula]

Is there a keyboard shortcut for accessing the black arrow key while the pen tool is selected? When the pen tool is selected, pressing the command key temporarialy accesses the white arrow tool. I was wondering if there is a similar keyboard shortcut for accessing the black arrow tool without having to leave the pen tool? Thanks.

Hello Caligula,

When you have Pen tool selected and you press COMMAND (MAC) or CTRL(PC) key this will temporarily call the last selection tool you used for paths PATH SELECTION TOOL (BLACK ARROW) or DIRECT SELECTION TOOL (WHITE ARROW). So if you have used in your case white arrow COMMAND/CTRL key will call White arrow or if you have used Black arrow it will call Black arrow. So if any case you want to alter the selection tool as my friend Old Geezer said CTRL+ALT (PC) or COMMAND+OPTION (MAC) will call opposite selection tool for paths from one you have last used.
