Getting to Know Photoshop’s Toolbox (Part-2)

 

Overview of the toolbox

The screenshot below shows the toolbox in Photoshop CS3. (Other versions may differ slightly, but the basic tool layout is the same across all versions.)

• Click a tool icon or name in the image below to find out more about that tool.
• Most of the tool icons actually represent a group of related tools. A little black triangle in the bottom right corner of an icon signifies a tool group. When you click a tool group’s icon in the image below, you can read descriptions of all the tools in the group.
• All tools have shortcut keys so you can select them quickly. You can see the shortcut key for a tool by hovering the mouse over it in the image below. (This also works in the toolbox in Photoshop itself.) I’ve also included the shortcut keys in the headings for each tool — or tool group — description.
• To quickly cycle through the tools in a tool group, hold down Shift while pressing the shortcut key.
