CS5 Photoshop "CMD H" for hide selection

  • August 3, 2010

When photo retouching, I'm constantly using the hide selection in (CS3, CS4). Now, I'm using CS5 and the hide selection "CMD H" is no longer available. Just the pull down menu only for this feature. This is slowing me down and time is of the essence when photo retouching. Is there a patch out there for hide selection? I'd like to have the "CMD H" back. Please come back.....

Thank you in advance for any help you can provide!

      Hi,

      You can configure CMD + H using Edit> Keyboard Shortcuts... In that dialog, go to View> Extras and set the CMD + H kbsc, or View> Show> Selection Edges for just the marching ants and not other visible guides.

      For background on the CS5 change that probably is what modified your expected behavior, see this post:
