Adobe Lightroom Keyboard Shortcuts

Article

One of the many nice features of Adobe Lightroom's interface is its plethora of handy keyboard shortcuts. Here the primary ones worth memorizing.

  1. Tab - Shows and hides the side panels. Great way to focus on an image without distractions.
  2. Shift-Tab - Hides and show all panels, including the filmstrip
  3. Shift-F - toggles full-screen mode
  4. Shift-L - Adobe calls this "dimming the lights." There are actually two modes, hit the shortcut once and everything but the currently selected image will be blacked out. Hit it again and everything will be slightly dimmed out. Hit it a third time and you're back to normal.
  5. Command / - show a complete list of module-specific shortcuts

The last one in that list is worth special mention -- it'll pull up a list of all the available shortcuts for whatever module you happen to be in. It makes a great way to quickly view your shortcut options and is an invaluable reference for memorizing some more shortcuts.

Also note that many of these settings -- like how much the "lights out" feature dims -- can be set in the Preferences. Just head to the Interface tab of the Preferences window.
