Cmd-Opt-Tilde (or PC Ctrl-Alt-Tilde) used to divide luminance values into high & low in CS2 & before. It made nice shaded selections, often useful for making separate curves for shadows & highlights (or low & high Zones).

In CS3, nothin' happens. Is there a new command for this, or did someone at Adobe decide we didn't need it? I even own the CS3 manual - no longer a freebie - but find no index entries under Luminance values.

It works for me on the Windows version.

Kirk:

It's still there. Apple usurped the cmd-option-tilde keyboard shortcut to "Move focus to the window drawer". All you have to do is uncheck that shortcut in System Prefs/keyboard/shortcuts and PS will go back to delivering the luminosity mask.

Thank you so much, Pat!
