Shortcut to switch between (Fixed and Normal) Marque tool.

Hi everyone, I love the fixed size marque tool so I can get the marque tool pixels I need. An annoyance occurs when I am deep in photoshop and have to manually scroll all the way up and click normal marque too. After a while this causes extra time, is there a tip to quickly switch between Fixed and Normal Style Marque tools?

You could save  the Fixed Size Marquee as a tool preset, and access it form the Tool Presets panel.

Further to this suggestion, an action (tool preset only) or script (tool and preset) can be used to set a keyboard shortcut to select the appropriate option.
