A few questions :
1. Is there any keyboard shortcut for accessing the pointing finger?
2. Previously when I had an adjustment layer dialogue box open, I could access the fields of the dialogue box by using the tab keystroke. Now, if I have open an HSL panel, for example, and press tab, my tools and various panels of course hide or become visible, making it necessary each time to click in the appropriate field first. Can this be avoided?
3. When in Curves, Standard view, arrow keys are in 2 step increments, in Expanded view the increments are 1 step. Is this as it should be (my preference for the latter)?
4. At least once each week I'm in the field shooting portraits and printing them out from my Macbook Pro. Screen real estate is at a premium and sometimes the panels just aren't configurable enough (vertically). It is impossible to adjust them comfortably. Also, a few versions ago of PS, the 'Fit on Screen' took into account palette and toolbox location (not CS3) and adjusted size accordingly (unless this was serendipitous). Is there any way to get this back in CS4, now that all Preview sizes can be displayed so flawlessly?
5. Is the mourning for the keyboard shortcuts for Curves point navigation irreversible, or will there be a reprieve? On the French portable keyboard, the + and - keystrokes are awkwardly placed and it is very difficult if not impossible to use them in a coordinated way with the arrow keys (at least for me).
