quick key for changing marquee type

Anonymous — Tue, 07 Sep 2004 22:37:54 GMT

Does anyone know of a quick key that will toggle between the thick and thin marquee? I searched through the keyboard shortcuts but failed to find any solution there. Thanks in advance.

sorry - no.

the two big keyboard shortcuts for most tools are 'C' (construction method) and 'G' geometry. 'G' works with the marquee, but the 'construction' method doesn't. shame, but can't say i've ever noticed . . .

A silly bug, isn't it? Construction method doesn't work JUST with this tool! It makes me crazy too...

This is also true of the Selection tool. No "C" toggle of the selection method. Why? Anyone know if this has changed in 9?

Nope.

Because IMHO it is not a CONSTRUCTION method, it is a SELECTION method. S is already used for snap grids, will have to read the manual to see what else is there ...

BTW, G works nicely.

As Ben before me, have not noticed Thanks for the heads up!
