Day 26 in the 30 in 30 series is going to talk about a shortcut that I don't use that much, but is a "nice to know" sort of feature. It's the Ctrl + Shift + Arrow keys to highlight text. This is especially useful when trying to highlight a small or large chuck of text that just doesn't want to cooperate with you. I think that we have all been there. I've got a little click and drag going on to select a few words, but I just can't quite get it. Rather than selecting the next letter, it selects an image or I accidently open a link and have to start all over. By placing your cursor where you want to start and using the Ctrl + Shift + Arrow keys you are able to select words at a time or an entire paragraph. Not quite sure what I mean?
Take a look at the video here so see it in action.
Happy Highlighting.
