Hi

When I am using Healing Brush or Clone Stamp I toggle between Lighten and Darken Mode for the tool.

Is there no shortcut to do this like you have for toggling between blending mode for layers.

The same blending mode keyboard shortcuts for layers should work with the spot healing and clone stamp tools.
