CS3 Question
I asked this on DST, but was wondering if some of you gals knew.
I just got CS3 and I'm having a hard time transitioning from PSE. I can't figure out how to do Group with Previous. On PSE you just do Apple G (or Ctrl G for PC users). Anyone know how to do that is CS3? TIA! Ash

I use PSE6 but I think I've read somewhere that in CS3 you do Alt-Ctrl-G to clip layers together.

Yes, it's Ctrl+Alt+G
BUT you can go and change that in your settings to be Ctrl+G...I know when I was moving to CS from PSE, it was hard for me to remember that one. If you want to know how to do it, let me know and I'll walk you through it.  ETA...another shortcut for it is to hold down ALT and at the same time hover your mouse between the 2 layers you want to group, you'll see the pointer icon change, just click when you see that and it does it for you.

I recently upgraded to PS CS3 from Elements too and for the first few days I kept hitting ctrl g to make the clipping mask. But I think now I've trained myself to do as Bree mentioned with the alt key and positioning the cursor btwn the layers.
When I used PSE and saw that the clipping mask shortcut was diff for PS, I used to wonder why. Now I know that ctrl g is to make a group is PS (which you can't do in PSE I believe). The loss of photo bin . . . now that's a little harder for me to get over . . .

Is the bridge the thing you use to find all your files? If that's what it is, I couldn't live without it. LOL

If you have ACDSee, I definitely see no reason for you to bother with Bridge (other than for things like Bree's example maybe).
Maybe there's been upgrades that have fixed issues, but I found Bridge was clunky, slow and really unstable. I can't use ACDSee, so I would LOVE something that would let me organize by keyword. But when it bogs you down like that, it's not much use to me. I also never figured out how you to actually search by the keywords I was assigning. It was all in all just a whole lot of frustration to me.
