Photoshop Platform Idea - Quick Access Tools and Actions

I would like propose the idea of having a toolbar of Quick Access Tools that allow a user to have quick access to often-used tools and actions. I've been photographing for 26 years with over 15 of those years as a professional photographer. I find myself using the same workflow for each photo. For instance, I use the remove tool alot for blemishes and an action for reducing undereye circles. Rather than bouncing all around the tools and action settings, it would be nice to have my favorite tools and actions in one area, kind of like a toolbag of the two together than I can reach into and access quickly and that I can label. I often use the Remove Tool, for instance, to remove blemishes as I previously mentioned. It would be nice to create a specific size Remove Tool Brush and label it "Remove Blemishes." You get the idea. I would love this to be implemented in the near future--it would be a big help! Thank you.

Ha! Thanks! :)!! As long as I've been doing photography, I somehow missed that. It's definitely changed a lot since I first used it. Thank you again.

The toolbar is fully customizable in Edit > Toolbar. You can put any tool wherever you want, remove those you don't use, and group/ungroup as you like.

 

You can also customize all tool shortcuts.
