Hi guys,

I just picked up LR4 today. I'm new to Lightroom and have been using Adobe Camera Raw for years. One of my favorite features of ACR is the ability to toggle between the original image and the adjusted image using the "P" shortcut key.

Is there an equivalent of this in Lightroom? I figured out how to do A/B side by side comparisons but just wondering if I can toggle between the two in-place.

Thanks!

toasty

Try the "backslash" key (\).

Good info!

I'm gonna have to put together a "hot list" of cool but easy-to-forget key shortcuts!

Heh! Yeah, I have 2 or 3 of those lists plus the LR Help. I'll browse through them once in a while, but I'm finally starting my own "short list":)!

You can always hit CMD + / in LR and it will bring up the shortcuts for the specific module you are in.

Right. They showed us that when I took that intro LR course last year. That is a good shortcut to have around but I don't use shortcuts too often. I'm an icon/button user.

I have a few favorite shortcuts -- like Ctl/Cmd-Shift-E to export, "F" to change screen modes, stuff I use a lot, but so many I forget!
