Few small photoshop things, which helps me in work

Hi :)
How are you?

Ok, today i want tell you about few small things, which helps me in work.
In any software i working with default options, becouse this help me work on any computer and don’t spend my time on settings :) But anyway when photoshop installed, i made 1 important thing:

I make Pent tool hot key on the button (s), this very cofortable, let me explane, why..
When i working with curves i don’t move my hand from “a (Direct Selection Tool)” to “p (Pen Tool)”.

Second tool, when i just open document i switch screen mode to “Full screen mode with menu bar”, i think this is very useful and comfortable mode, i can drag document in any side.

Screen mode

One more thing.. When i have 19″ monitor with 1280×1024px resolution, was very non comfortable when i did sites, becouse i always started with 1200×1500px screen size when make new document.
So when you press “Tab” key, you can hide photoshop panels in right and left hand sides. This helps see full view of your design.

And last i always use hot keys for zooming(ctrl+-, ctrl+=) and for filling(alt+backspace — foreground color and ctrl+backspace — background color).

That all for today, i didn’t said any new, but maybe this will help someone.
Again sorry for my english.
Thanks for your time, bye :)
