Convert to Editable text shortcut?

[David Johnson]

If you’re talking about Photoshop text layers you want to convert to AE text layers, just right click on hem in the timeline and select convert to text. If it’s some type of text document you’ve brought into AE, you’ll have to open that doc in it’s appropriate program, then copy and past the text into AE text layers.

Yep, Photoshop text layers..thanks for that – that’s bit quicker than going down the layer menu everytime. a hotkey would be awesome, but that will do me for now!

Cheers.

No, there is no keyboard shortcut for converting Photoshop text to editable text.

If you want to request such a shortcut, just fill out the feature request form.

All (and I mean all) of the keyboard shortcuts for After Effects CS4 and After Effects CS3 are listed in the respective Help documents on the Web. These documents also include instructions on modifying the keyboard shortcuts.

Sorry, but the Help document for After Effects 7.0 doesn’t have quite all of the keyboard shortcuts, but you can use the After Effects CS4 or CS3 documents as a reference for most of them. Very few have changed.
