i'm working in Ps, a painting project, and now my whole project has turned black and white. all of my layers. I'm fairly sure I pressed something accidentally but I don't know what or how to fix it. help??
Press Cmd or Ctrl 2 and let me know if that worked. Hold down the Ctrl key and press 2 for example.
Cmd = Mac
Ctrl = PC
I just figured it out. I had accidentally turned half of my layers invisible.... I don't know how I managed that by pressing one key but now i'm really embarrassed. thanks for your help though

You are brilliant! Pressing Cmd + 2 worked. I don't know what I hit but it didn't show up in my history. Thank you!!!

Thanks to both of you, Milisaa93350435 and Gener7. Even though it was a differnt problem than yours, it was Gener7's initail response that was exactly what I needed. Accidently stroking key-commands you don't mean to can be a real bummer... Don't be embarresed, you saved my day! (:

Okay so I had the same problem and ctrl2 didn't work. Indeed it was in this menu that i noticed the issue, my document idkhow turned greyscale, and by clicking on rgb, simply it reapplied color. It open a menu saying "would u flatten the image before ?" I personnaly applied, "no" and it did'nt change anything on my work. If that could help 🙂

Of all things, adobe has taken ctl 1 which for more than 20 years was the actual size command, so much that it became automatic with our fine motor skills, and now everytime you forget and try to see your image at actual size, surprise it turns your image to black and white and there appears to be no solution to correct except closing the program file without saving. There is also no longer a macro for rotation. I guess programmers are really getting hard up to justify their jobs.

View > 100% still has Cmd/Ctrl 1 assigned to it in Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts. You can still assign that shortcut to it.
Ctrl 2 is composite RGB with 3, 4, 5 being assigned to the Red, Blue, and Green Channels. You may want to select Keyboard Defaults to get everything back. Also consider on a PC, utilities sometimes trap those keys.

In my case it was ctrl + Y (View > Proof Colors)
