keyboard shortcut? - flexible fotography - 12-09-2022
hello.
in GIMP 2.8, is there a keyboard shortcut to cancel a selection tool?
specifically, i often use ‘fuzzy select tool' and apply a brightness, contrast or color balance to certain areas of an image. then i must again mouse-click fuzzy select tool, and then click on an area outside the image to clear the select tool. i know this isn't terrible, but is there an easier way to clear the tool so I can see what I have just done to the image?
thanks for helping.

Try select none from the select menu Shift + Ctrl + A. You can reassign to one letter on the keyboard if desired.
