Great Jesús. They were all new to me. Thanks.

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

You're welcome, David!

[@RiveyFirdaus]

thank you so much, you solved the problem that i didnt know exist

[@georgetriantafyllides2820]

You are the best. you give us what we need to know.

[@ladislavmertlik]

all new to me - many thanks!

[@inactiverahul]

it is nice, I have been following you since last 2 years! Thanks for such content on youtube.

[@photoshopeandotv]

Another great and informative video. My favourite shortcut is the one for changing the size of the text, specially when adding Alt to speed up the size change. I use it a lot - luckily, it works even on non-USA keyboards (it's always frustrating when some keyboard shortcuts don't work in foreign keyboards). Thanks for all these "type tips"!

[@gaizgazal9269]

Thank you so much, Sir. Very helpful tutorials. Is there any shortcut to getting back to the previous or selecting tool from the text tool?

[@SAS672]

Very useful indeed!

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Thank you, Ady P!

[@ASMTechbase]

I have been watching your tutorials for a while now, really like them. They are nice and clean, straight to the point, just awesome !

[@PhotoMe99]

That moment when you know the video is gonna be great even before he makes it! "Because you are blessed for being a subscriber to the best channel ever existed for photoshop"

[@nositelle]

Very useful indeed. The key is to keep remembering them over time... Will have to watch this video again, I am sure.

[@rgarlinyc]

Very helpful, thanks Jesús! Many were timely reminders for me, but the 'reposition' shortcut was a great new trick to discover!

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

You're welcome, R Garlin!

[@tessellatiaartilery8197]

Brilliant video. I only knew the Ctl T short cut but all the rest were (good!) news to me. These will really speed up workflow so extremely useful to have them all presented together. Many thanks for another ace learning session.

[@rodneyschmidt3652]

Excellent video! Had no idea about these keyboard shortcuts... makes working with text in Photoshop (something I have traditionally hated) so much easier!

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Thank you, Rodney! I'm glad you found it useful!

[@heidischwartz3747]

You'er the best!!!! Thanks again for a great tutorial!

[@Starman3539]

Another excellent tutorial with so many useful shortcuts. Thank you for a really worthwhile effort.

[@joycerivera3123]

Very helpful. I didn't know a lot of them, thank you!!

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

You're welcome, Joyce!

[@mousumicute2230]

Thanks Bro.....Great job....!

[@ladydayification]

Thank you! I only knew about three. Now all I have to do is try to remember them all. But, no worries, I saved this video in my library.

[@faizyusof8255]

Thanks for another good and helpful video. Thanks for your time doing all the videos

[@MrEdi-ef7bt]

thanks for the tutorial my friend, i have much learn from you.

[@krissbuddle]

Whilst playing with these (new to me) shortcuts I discovered ANOTHER one! Shift+Command+H (on a Mac) converts selected text to all capitals but with the first letter of each word larger than the rest!

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Great Find! There's actually a few more shortcuts, but I only included the ones that I figured most people would use. But all those buttons in the character panel have shortcuts.

[@simpa1968]

Great video! I learned so much, thanks for sharing!

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

You're welcome, simpa1968!

[@MustafaJackson]

These type tips and tricks were terrific; Thanks. I am a subscriber.

[@ethiclesshacker]

Great video!

[@lannray]

Really helpful stuff. Thanks.

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

You're welcome, Olanrewaju!

[@AndreasKemalis]

Thanks for this, awesome (again) video

[@mikailibrahim748]

extremely valuable......i love it...

[@JohnChubbSr]

Thanks for all the shortcuts, Jesus. Moving the cursor outside the bounding box to move the text is particularly useful as well as adjusting the leading, and changing the space between letters. It is all worthy of memorizing! Excellent lesson!

[@Dana-xe1sr]

Knew almost all of them but the reset to the default was great. thanks!

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

You're welcome, Светлодана!

[@RoyBlumenthal]

Wow! The only things I *did* know were ctrl-u, ctrl-b, ctrl-i. Everything else is fresh knowledge. All of these tips are very useful to me, cos I make my own fonts using a plugin called FONTSELF. It's excellent for creating full fonts. But I struggle to get the kerning and leading right. These tips make fixing individual words and lines really quick and easy. Thanks, Jesús!

[@vincentspratling365]

There was a lot i didn't know.And thank you for your video

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

You're welcome, Vincent!

[@ElTorroTheMan]

Great tut (as always). :D There was many new ones for me.

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Thank you, Mikael!

[@BrianPSpurr]

Wow great stuff, all useful!

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Thank you, Brian!

[@morin_photos]

Jesús, I really like the lessons you present. They are complete and direct, they are well explained and well presented. Gracias!

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Thank you, David!

[@palawaneagle6746]

Thank you

[@saljuarez2910]

Great video and lots of jewels here. Hoping that one day you get to cover the mixer brush and history brush and the proper use of the tools. Looking forward to your content. Gracias.

[@briancarroll6363]

Very good nice one

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Thank you, Brian!

[@gerdkalesse6494]

Wow! Thank you, Jesús

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

You're welcome, Gerd!

[@hajaslaszlo7202]

Hi Jesús, Thanks for this tutorial. While trying out these shortcuts, I have discovered a new one ( at least new to me:). If you move or scale your text and then use CTRL + Shift + period, the text will "jump" back to its original place and its original size on the canvas.

[@satishmadhu2ms]

Big thums up without seeing video💚💚

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Thank you, madhu!

[@HoustonBrownPhotography]

I knew about half of them. Thank you.

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

You're welcome, Houston!

[@steveh718]

Great! love all your videos.... Is there a shortcut to convert back and forth between 'paragraph text' and 'point text'?

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Good question Steve. I don't know. I haven't looked it up, but none comes to mind.

[@graphictoz2921]

You are just awesome....

[@WanderFeetChronicles]

Nice. There was in fact a few in there I didn’t know, and now will use. Especially the resizing shift&command one. Thanks dude. Owe you :-)

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

You're welcome, ScousePhotographer!

[@hosenzwen2258]

Hi I love this .thanks.

[@TheYun77]

[@villageboysoudi]

[@banabantangangom431]

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

[@boink313]

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

👍🙂

[@antpruitt]

Beautiful. I'm horrible with text. Thanks for this!

[@nurb2kea]

Nice, good one! Thanks :-)

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

You're welcome, Nurb 2Kea!

[@KarlKreationHD]

Hello! First thanks for the awesome tips! These are awesome! However I got a question thought! Which are the exact bracket keys regarding the clone stamp toll? Because I'm french and I use an azerty keyboard. I looked them up but nothing that I found actually allowed me to scale bigger/ smaller before cloning.

[@user-vx8jg8nu6v]

last reposition trik is the best

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

👍🙂

[@posbanner6694]

What font is that? Is there a font / typography documentary you recommend? I’m obsessed with type.

[@petercullen1245]

Thanks Jesus... I only knew The Ctrl T shortcut for The Text Control Rotate expand etc and usually Use Just One font First then select the Remainder say and change its Style... Font and Size But now I Kow that I can also Resize it to Greater than the 72 max in The Font Control windows ... Thanks... I have found some interesting Text Combinations though That allow using 72 for both Fonts... but one Is Hige and the other is about 1/10 the size but both are size 72... interesting... Thanks again Great now I just have to practice and use them before I forget them all again!!

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

You're welcome, Peter! I'm glad you found it useful!

[@erickroav]

Request : Keyboard shortcuts for Photoshop action ... or is it the same thing?

[@attovidoes]

can you do surrealism art that involves Photoshop and illustrator great channel btw!

[@motionstasis]

Many :L) I tend to be clunky with typography shortcuts and tweaks. This was very inspiring... and a kick in the rump to be more intentional with my text. I will try to be more "texy" :)

[@kevinlefournis6293]

👌🏻

[@Lilliebeth001]

10new ones thx

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

You're welcome, Lilany!

[@CombatSports01]

7:05 Reposition

[@-CQ]

2:26 Why that typing line is so bigger than the fonts? I'm facing that stupid issue too.

[@dorenemarshall1622]

Do you do tutorials for photoshop elements

[@terrelcohen7266]

Hey do the type shortcuts work with Indesign and illustrator??

[@rafiahmedtaohid1305]

Can u tell how can I adjust the size of an object(let's say an image) with shortcut keys after getting into free transform mode(ctrl+T)??

[@SelvamME]

These shortcuts applicable for current version PS 2019?

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Most will work with older versions as well

[@JoeBodego]

When I have the type in a type box and I want to switch to the move tool, how do I do that from the jepboard

[@ladydayification]

Do you have a video on making custom fonts (fancy scripts)? If so, please send me the url?

[@mrgermanyhd]

When working with text you have an option in the horizontal option bar that says "a a : Sharp" (the second a is an index). The question is which option would you recommend Sharp, Sharper or one of the remaining options in order to get maximum text quality?

[@marcherrmann9635]

Didn't know ANY of them.... Honestly I don't use text boxes very often, that's why I'm gonna forget your precious tips very fast, that's for certain. But nevertheless thank you very much for your valuable input!

[@alistairnitz]

There are too many shortcuts in Photoshop to remember ............ arrrrgghhhh. I new about half and half. The shortcut for bold, underline and italics will help in improving workflow.

[@jimhatch3091]

i know most of the , but shift T is new to me thank you Jesus

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

You're welcome, Jim!

[@jmnaquin4364]

i knew a few, but learned a few too. I must say tho I HATE THE AUTO-SCALE in the new version! Making that default is a PITA!!! Been using PS since PS2! (no, not CS2... PHOTOSHOP 2)

[@jashujustin6400]

can you please help me auto leading is not working in my ps

[@samimahealthcare7304]
