Affinity Photo - Set Keyboard Shortcuts for Colours, Gradient Tool and Studio Panels
This tutorial shows you how to set up keyboard shortcuts. You can activate many pre-made keyboard shortcuts via the Preferences panel. Many have already been activated by Serif but there are a lot that haven't. This video shows you how to do a few but you can activate any you find by entering the key or keys you want and can remember.
The ones I have activated are setting the Default fill colours back to Black and White, Set fill colour to 50% Grey, Set the Gradient Tool to the G key and lastly, show how to open and remove Studio Panel tabs quickly just by using a couple of keys.
You don't have to use the same key combinations as I have, but try and make them fairly obvious as you will need to remember them. This tutorial can also be adapted to Affinity Designer as its keyboard shortcuts are set in the same way, via the Preferences panel.
