0:00 Kia ora youtubers my name is Dan and this
0:03 video here is one of the free ones that
0:04 a giveaway is part of my logic or so if
0:06 you are keen and you do enjoy it check
0:09 out there'll be a link in the
0:10 description but for now let's go off and
0:12 look at the free stuff in this video
0:16 we're going to look at some of the
0:17 essential shortcuts you need in terms of
0:19 dealing with layers now layers panel see
0:21 down here I've working on a final an
0:23 image here and you can see the layers
0:25 have been built up over time and there
0:27 are hundreds of them now so it's not
0:29 really practical to go through and try
0:32 and remember the names of them also know
0:33 which layer you're working on so you
0:35 need a trick the best one and the one
0:37 that I use constantly is that make sure
0:39 you and your move tool okay and make
0:42 sure that your move tool is set to layer
0:44 now what will happen is you're going to
0:46 learn a little short coat okay so we're
0:48 on some random layer at the moment I
0:50 want to click this word that says more
0:52 now i'm going to zoom a little bit to
0:54 select more what i need to do is hold
0:56 down the command key okay on a Mac or
0:58 the ctrl key on a PC and what you'll
1:01 notice is that can you see up on the top
1:03 app bar changes this thing called auto
1:05 select it just kind of toggles it on
1:06 while you need it okay so if I hold down
1:09 the command key and I click the word
1:10 more you see in my layers panel at jump
1:12 to the more and I can move this around
1:14 then say I want to move the green box as
1:16 well I'll hold down my command key and a
1:18 little auto select ogle comes on I click
1:20 on this and even though it's got some
1:22 random name called rectangle too I could
1:25 still move it around okay so i can click
1:27 more move him across click the rectangle
1:29 move them across hold down let's make
1:31 awesome and it's just a really easy way
1:34 to pick the layers and move them around
1:36 and really essential when you are
1:38 working on such a layer heavy document
1:39 i'm going to go to hit it step backwards
1:43 in it step backwards edit step backwards
1:46 another useful shortcut is if you've got
1:48 a really complex set of layers and all
1:50 on top of each other it's really hard to
1:51 select the one you want what you can do
1:53 is let's pretend for a second there to
1:56 see this image in the background here I
1:57 want to select say using this little
1:58 area here but I can't because there is a
2:01 black box in front of it okay so if i
2:03 use my command click trick it's going to
2:05 click this rectangle every time okay of
2:07 course i could pick down here but that
2:08 runs my example what i can do is if i
2:11 right click
2:12 okay if I right click and if you're on a
2:15 Mac you don't have a right click you
2:16 control click but if you're on a PC it's
2:18 easy to right click and you'll notice
2:20 that it picks everything in my little
2:21 layer order here so that's the one that
2:23I was that's the black rectangle
2:24 underneath it though something called
2:26 layer 2 and that is my little image
2:28 another useful shortcut that you're
2:30 gonna need is if you're using say my
2:32 template and you're using the column
2:34 grids okay and you need to be able to go
2:36 to view show guides and these can be
2:40 really great when you're lining things
2:41 up but real pain when you're trying to
2:43 look at things visually because it kind
2:44 of ruins the look of everything with the
2:45 lines everywhere so the shortcut for
2:47 this if you're on a Mac its command and
2:49 use the colon key on your keyboard if
2:51 you're on a PC it's come control and
2:53 colon and you toggle these on and off I
2:56 do this quite a bit when i'm working
2:57 with these grids or the Monta line
2:59 things up and then I turn it off again
3:00 when I'm trying to look at things and
