I followed your recommendation. to switch back to
Cmd H for hiding selections.
you said: Just go to Edit> Keyboard Shortcuts and simply Change the “Set:” pop-up at the top of the dialog from “Photoshop Defaults (modified)” back to “Photoshop Defaults”.

It worked like a charm. Thank you, Thank you!!!

Ever Grateful.
Ellen

I’ve been using Macs for 25 years and just now started getting in the habit of hiding apps. I was pleasantly surprised when Photoshop gave me that dialog box. Great idea! Thank you so much to the Photoshop team for being willing to implement it.

Now would you mind calling up someone on the Illustrator team and encouraging them to do this too? :-) Illustrator completely ignores the CMD-H command, even when you take it out of the Keyboard Shortcuts.

P.S.: Frank, you can put CMD-H back to hide selection edges. Just go to the Edit menu, choose “Keyboard shortcuts…”, popout the “View” menu, go down to “Show>Selection Edges”, click in the Shortcut column and hit CMD-H.

HATE THIS!! I’m so used to using cmd-H to hide edges for the last 20 years that it’s second nature to mm now. I accidentally chose the wrong (new) option in that dialog box and now I can’t figure out how to change it back! PITA!

(Seriously, finding this blog, then writing up comments is much slower than choosing Edit->Keyboard Shortcuts & settings things as desired.)”

I have a motto: it’s not the user who is stupid, it’s the design that is wrong. If people take so much time to complain when the fix is easy, maybe that’s because it’s not easy at all to get to know that the fix is easy. Because really, people are not _that_ stupid. If they knew the fix was easy, they’d fix it.

The suggested behaviour for the next versions is welcome.

In Photoshop choose Edit>Keyboard Shortcuts…

Change the “Set:” pop-up at the top of the dialog from “Photoshop Defaults (modified)” back to “Photoshop Defaults”

I have tried to find a way to reset this but no luck. Tried to reinstall software but no go. Any ideas on how to reset this, so I can hide selection lines with Command -H instead of hiding Photoshop?

The problem is that Bridge will not properly sharpen RAW images after you hit the space bar, and eventually crashes, if you have a large collection of images that Bridge handles.
There was no such problem with Bridge3 which worked fast and was stable.

In After Effects I have the opportunity to type in (for example when changing the image size) 3123 / 2
I would like to have this in Photoshop too. That would shorten my workflow.

Kudo’s for a serious and effective approach.

Now, I wonder if it will be possible to fully use some key combos on foreign keyboard layouts (i.e. not US or UK). This worked fine in Tiger, but since Leopard (and also in Snow Leopard) it doesn’t work.
For example: if I use Swedish keyboard layout and wan’t to map ”cmd ä” to increase brush size and ”cmd ö” to decrease it I can set this fine in Photoshop’s Keyboard Shortcuts editor, but when the key combo with these ”exotic” characters are pressed nothing happens!
Like I said – worked fine in Tiger, so Apple did some changes here.

Glædelig jul from Denmark!
