LOL they are not secrets. If people do not know this very basic knowledge, then they shouldn't even be using a PC/Mac. There is a standard among ALL software packages that is generally maintained by developers, which are shortcuts. But ALSO a standard, is the fact that the F from File is always the underlined letter, to make just ONE example. Since using DOS applications on a XT PC with monochrome (2-color) screen back in the day, I have been using these key sequences to do things. I do this in Windows File Explorer, in my internet browser, in Notepad, etc etc etc. People seem to not question why things (anything) are what they are. There is a REASON behind EVERYTHING that is designed. Pay attention and question/notice what something/anything is for, so you can understand it better.

I've used this for a long time, for software that has a specific function that it won't allow you to assign a keyboard shortcut for. I use this in combination with StrokesPlus, a gestural utility that executes keyboard sequences using a right click then a screen gesture. It saves a lot of time, and if you have a CIntiq or similar device, or even just a normal graphics tablet, it removes a lot of messing with a keyboard. It takes some getting used to, but you'll never go back once you get the hang of it. It becomes intuitive and more natural than pressing keyboard shortcuts.

I run into a problem with my German version of PS. I suspect the same thing could also happen in the English version in other Menus, or in other languages.
- Alt + E opens the Layers menu Ebenen
- but then, 'S' is already taken by Schnittmaske; Smartobjekte is immediately below, but cannot be opened in this way.
What to do? reassign the underlined letter in the menu? jump directly into the submenu?

when I take a screenshot and the text of it becomes distorted may be due to the thickness or little text. How can I enhance its quality to make it readable in photoshop because it is readable in the same size on screen but not in the screenshot when I place it in any mockup or in adobe photoshop.

In keyboard instead of alt key, there is also menu key for windows users that right-clicks any selected stuffs, then as he said, alt tricks are applicable there. That's another speedy trick I use. Like if you agree.

Ameesh, I need your help once again. I need to place text at specific angles. I can free rotate, rotate 180, or 90 cw or ccw, but cant find a setting to force a 35 degree angle. Is there such a creature?
