Keyboard shortcuts for scrolling around an image at 100%

Paul Foley
Hi all,
When using LR I am able to set an image at 100% and move around the image in screen sized increments by using the Function and Arrow keys. Very handy when spotting out dust etc. Are there keyboard shortcuts for this in C1Pro?
Thanks in advance,
cheers

    Pan tool (Hand symbol) or Hold Down the Space Bar and then scroll around with mouse, touchpad or graphics tablet, etc.

    Thanks for the quick reply SFA,
    I have been using that technique - I just wondered if there was a mouse (etc) free way.

    I agree that LR's method of "scanning" the image is quite handy. It's easier than panning with the mouse, and it is guaranteed that you cover the entire area.

    Why not log an enhancement request?

    Cheers,
    Peter.

    Good suggestion pete.f,

    Last night I found I could get a little navigation window to pop up while in the spot mode. It worked (in a fashion) by allowing me to move a rectangle in the little window to the next area of the image. I discovered it by accident (it took me a while to figure out what I had done!) by pressing the space bar and right clicking the mouse (Mac) - it seems to work best when done in that order (space bar first).

    It's still a bit clunky and the window disappears each time you clean up a spot. I can't find any reference to it in the online help but it may be that I'm asking the wrong questions in the search field.

    Being able to move around the window with keystrokes would be the ideal solution.

    cheers

    Surely using something like a graphics tablet would be the ideal solution?

    Keyboards are very old tech.

    Hi Grant,

    Graphics tablets are good - I've used them for years. However being able to quickly move around a 100% view of an image to check for dust and other blemishes is so much quicker when using the arrow keys (at least for me). It is also very accurate as you are moving across (or up/down) an image in defined, repeatable sections with less chance of missing any part of the picture.

    cheers

    Two other tips:

    Right clicking when using hand tool brings up navigator. This allows you to nav around in an macro overview (especially useful when zoomed into large expanses of the same color/texture and you loose position.

    When zoomed, hold OPT and then use the Trackpad to pan (two fingers)
