Photoshop CS4 Tips

I just learned 2 new Photoshop CS4 tips that just made me smile. As many of you know, I am a short cut, keyboard junkie! If there is a way to make my life faster and or easier while using Photoshop, I am up for it.

One of my favorite short cuts is the the left and right bracet keys when you want to increase or decrease the size of a brush tool. Well in PS CS4 if you hold down the Control + Option keys and then click and hold the mouse down while draging the mouse to the left or right to change the size of your brush. This is great!

Also another way to Zoom in and out in PS CS4. If you click and hold while using the Zoom tool you will zoom continuous until you get to the zoom you want, then let go to stop.
