How to quickly fill a white layer mask w. black?

My adjustment layers are set to come in with a white layer mask. But sometimes I want to fill that mask w. black after the adjustment and selectively brush-in the adjustment.

Is there a shortcut to quickly fill the mask w. black, w/o checking foreground/background colors; or choosing certain tools to be active; or Edit>Fill>Black, etc.? If not, how can I set my own keyboard shortcut? I don't see a Fill Black in the keyboard shortcut editing list. Thanks.

    Thanks, Charles.

    That's more of what I wanted. Works like a charm, and can be converted to a one-button operation by programing a keyboard function-key or an ExpressKey on my Wacom Intuos.

    "D"

    (sets the color wells to the default black foreground/white background)

    "Alt+Backspace"

    (fills all [or selection] with the foreground color)

    Hey,

    Make sure you have the Layer Mask Selected.


    And also make sure your color palletes have Black in it.

    Then Just Hit 'Alt+Backspace' for Foreground color and 'Ctrl+Backspace' for Background color of the Pallete.

    Your done.
