Making Selects Using Keyboard Shortcuts
Using keyboard shortcuts is an excellent way to speed up the process of giving images a five-star Select rating. The shortcut for the Select command is the backslash (\) key. Pressing the backslash key gives a five-star rating to an image or to groups of images. Let’s use keyboard shortcuts now to get good close-up looks at potential selects in the Viewer and rate them.
