Hand tool

I do quite a bit zoomed in masking. In Lightroom classic I used to click the navigator tool to move my way through the picture when zoomed in.

 

The new Lightroom really needs a similiar function. Now I am constantly switching between the mask tool an then closing the mask to scroll through the picture and then having to select the mask again. It takes ages.

 

The workload is immense when you need to review your picture with a mask tool or a  clone stamp zoomed in.

Hold down the space bar. The cursor will change to the Hand tool as long as you do that. This works in Lightroom Classic and in Photoshop too, by the way.
