Wouldn't it be nice if the tools on the tool palette could be switched by simple keystrokes? I lose a lot of time to mousing over to the palette to flip tools back and forth. Even if i move the palette closer to the area of the screen i'm using, everytime i switch views, i gotta move it again. I wish i could just press "a" for the arrow, "t" for trim, "b" for box, etc. What i'm talking about is not "hotkeys" per se, because you wouldn't have to press Ctrl+
. You'd just press the key by itself.
This is especially useful to me considering that i leave my left hand on the keyboard all the time, because of the frequent use of shift, ctl, alt, and group/hide commands. If i could just reach over and tap a key to change tools, things would go a lot faster.Plus, it's way easier to implement than Boolean operations. 8)
