Hey Matt,

you should compile a one page cheat sheet for lightroom that includes all these great shortcuts! I think a one page PDF would be great. Perhaps with a vial cue rather than a lengthy explanation (you don’t want to turn it into a user manual). I’m gradually learning many of them as I go but a visual prompt would be handy.
I’d do it myself but I’ too busy keywording…..

For german keyboards you have to press Alt Gr + ß

Wow, this is so much better than using the “\” key. However, is there a way to get the before and after in the Library Module instead of just in the Develop Module.

Thanks

Matt, you an inspiration to me as I’m sure to others, thank you for doing what you do.

Hello Matt,

First of all let me just say thank you for the excellent and mind incredibly useful blog you’ve got here; It just made it so much easier, faster and simpler to work with Lightroom that I can’t imagine not coming here everyday to learn something new!

Oh, and the other ting I wanted to say is that I’m pretty sure I’ve already read this tip… maybe it’s just memory that’s not that good, but I’m almost sure I have.

Matt,

After looking at your shortcut, I started playing around with Y-key PLUS the “shift”, “tab” and “alt” keys in combination and found some interesting results; particularly the tab key. Give them a try!!

Matt, this is strange.

I use this shortcut for several months now, and I learned it from you:

Keep up the excellent work! I am always surprised how simple things you present here can so improve the work in LR.

Thanks!

Hello Matt, I’ve been reading and watching the Killer Tips for ages now, has definitely improved my Lightroom skills (and my pictures)!

But this is the first time that I’ve come across a problem.. I’m not sure if this tip will help non-English LR users. The problem is that in order to get a backslash on my Swedish keyboard, I have to press AltGr + the plus sign, and that combo doesn’t do anything in Lightroom. Changing the keyboard layout to use a time saving shortcut is probably not very time saving.

Is there any other shortcut that would do the same trick?
