The little-known use of PS (v)

Tip 1, to use the brush tool to draw a line, first click on the picture, then move the mouse to another point hold down SHIFT and click the picture again, Photoshop will use the current drawing tools to draw a line between two points.

7. Combine color sampler tools [Shift+i] (color sampler Tool) and Information Panel (Window?) Show Info), we can monitor the color changes of the current picture. The color value before and after the change is displayed next to its sample point number on the information panel. The pop-up menu on the information Panel allows you to define the color mode for the sampling point. To add a new sampling point just click anywhere on the canvas (with the color Sampler tool) and hold down the ALT key to remove the sampling point.

Note: A maximum of four color sampling points can be placed on a single image

Tip: When a dialog box (such as a level command, Curve command, and so on) pops up in Photoshop, add a new sampling point that must hold down SHIFT and click, hold Alt+shift click a sample point to subtract it.

8, Measurement tool (Measure Tool) is very convenient to measure the distance (especially in the diagonal), you can also use it to measure the angle (like a protractor).
