I have been using Ctrl+Alt+Shift+F for years, not sure whether it is a default shortcut, or if I assigned it.

You can create your own shortcut sets - Edit > Keyboard shortcuts.

Per, is that 'F' a typo?   I can edit it if you like?

No it's not. I guess Ctrl+Alt+Shift+F is a default shortcut for something I never use, which is why I chose it for Flatten.

This probably happened when I bought the first version of PS that allowed you to create you own shortcuts. (whenever that was)

But thanks for the offer!

Yes, I sometimes post shortcuts that I later realize are my own...

I use the <modifier> + F shortcuts for various tabbed/floating window configurations. So there you go....what are these F shortcuts for anyway? Obviously they're not much used

In CC2017, in this situation, which is common, one can use control + e to merge all visible layers to the background layer. at this point a control + s will open a browser window directed to the original and save the image as a jpg when save is pressed.

Kevin you need to be specific as this is a long thread starting in 2015, which is seven major updates ago.  You need to start a new thread with enough information about your issue to give the forum a chance of helping you.
