10 Hidden Photoshop CC Features Every Designer Needs to Know

This video tutorial by portrait photographer Nathaniel Dodson (from the website tutvid) takes a look at 10 things that you might not have known in Photoshop CC.

Here is the list of lesser known features and things that you can do in Photoshop CC (we actually knew a few of them and if you are following us on LensVid you might know some of them as well but it is always good to learn more and refresh your own skills).

Lesser known Photoshop CC features in this video (there are actually more than 10 but we are not complaining):

  1. 01:09 – Revert Reconstruction
  2. 03:08  – Show Backdrop Trick
  3. 03:49 – Rubber Band
  4. 05:43 – Preserve Transparency Auto Hotkey
  5. 07:42 – Spring-Loaded Zooming
  6. 08:39 – Black and White from Channel
  7. 10:23 – Previewing Adjustment Layers
  8. 12:25 – Load Channel as Selection to Create Mask (Hotkey)
  9. 15:40 – Scrubby Sliders Everywhere!
  10. 17:59 – Exact Lens Flare Placement
  11. 19:42 – Repeating Filter with Options
  12. 20:30 – BONUS: Ruler Quirks & tricks

This isn’t the first time that Dodson does this sort of list – in the past we published his 10 Best and Worst Things in Photoshop CC and his 31 Hidden Hotkeys in Photoshop CC amongst other tutorials.

You can find many more Photoshop video tutorials on LensVid’s Photoshop section. You can also check Dodson’s previous videos here on LensVid.
