Play with options for tolerance, growth, feathering, etc. Fill the selection and / or the current color with the FG color. I rather use the Ctrl key to go into color picking mode.į = Fill Tool. G = Gradient tool, between FG and BG colors. You can quickly group & ungroup layers to do that (or just keep these useful groups!)Ĭ = Crop Tool: cut the bounds of the image to what is selected. Moreover, if you select a group of layers, it will move the whole group at once. T = Move Tool: move the current layer ou the selection, depending on optionsĬtrl+T = Transform a layer or selection: beside rotating, inverting or deforming capabilities, allows to move the selection. H = Show color history (below the palette colors used in the current picture) U = Show common colors (on the left of the palette allows quick selection alternative: right-click…) Shift+Backspace = Fill selection with FG color.Ĭtrl+Backspace = Fill selection with BG color (opacity).Ĭtrl+Shift+Backspace = Fill selection with FG color (opacity). Defaultĭ = Default foreground (FG =black) and background (BG = white) colors.Ĭtrl+I = Invert colors on current layer(s).īackspace = Fill selection with BG color. V = Hold this key, press mouse and hold it, it will trace a straight line between the press point and the release point. You can hit Ctrl+G to group the selected layers, for example… Shift+R = Idem, but add the layer to the selection of layers. Hold this key, click on a pixel, you select the layer holding this pixel. Shift+Space+left mouse button for fine canvas rotations.Ĭtrl+click = Color pick the pixel under the cursor.Ĭtrl+Alt+click = idem, but only if on current layer. Also with middle button (mouse wheel) click and drag. Shift+left mouse drag in Brush mode = resize brush (large when dragging to right, small when dragging to left). Right-click = Show a palette of brushes, color history and other tools. Note: FG = foreground (color), BG = background (color) Mouse shortcuts There are tons of shortcuts, I list here those I use often while drawing.
