Save trips to the Type tool

**AppleCider** · 01-12-2003, 11:54 PM

Some people know I'm a nut for shortcuts....life is too short even to type the T for the Type tool, then highlight copy you want to change. Here's how to do both at once.

Double-click on the T icon on the type layer you want to edit. It will automatically select the Type tool and highlight the copy. You're ready to edit.

And here's an even shorter cut Julie!

Just click on the T icon once! [honesty]

That way, the text doesn't become selected, and you can still read/see it; so you'll be able to judge how a modification is making your text look.

Ahhh...those precious palettes.

Me, I'm never in a hurry. In fact: it's only the cimetary that's waiting for us, so I take my time. And I prefer these palettes. Lots of settings and fun.

Something useful is that once the text layer is highlighted, the CTRL+Backspace and ALT+Backspace shortcuts are working to change the color of the text in a glimpse!
