Title: I just discovered this

Most of you know this already, I bet, but I just learned that in LR, when using the spot removal and other tools, your mouse scroll wheel will change the size of the target. No More need to use the [ and ] keys.

As a bonus, I learned that using the scroll wheel to click on a link opens that link in a new tab. Firefox, at least.

And- [Shift+Scroll Wheel] changes the 'Feather' of the Brush.
[Alt] changes the Brush to 'Erase'
[A] toggles Automask.
[K] toggles Brush on/off.

  • toggle colored overlay on/off. [Shift+O] changes overlay color.
Thanks. I know LR has a lot of keyboard and mouse shortcuts I still don't know.

I use an Apple Magic Mouse. Like a scroll wheel you can stroke the top surface just like with a track pad. What I like most is when using the TAT, targeted adj tool, you don't need to click and drag. Just keep placing it where you want an tickle the mouse. Learned it by accident when TAT was active and I reached across my desk touching the mouse and saw that sliders moved.
