Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

    To "toggle" a command means to:

    • A.

      Use the same key or keys to turn the command on and off

    • B.

      Use the CTRL key with another letter

    • C.

      Find the command in the menu bar at the top

    • D.

    Correct Answer
    A. Use the same key or keys to turn the command on and off
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Use the same key or keys to turn the command on and off." Toggling a command means that you can use the same key or keys to activate or deactivate the command. This allows for quick and convenient control over the command without having to navigate through menus or use additional keys.

    Rate this question:

  • 2. 

    In most applications, which of these quick keys DOES NOT match its command?

    • A.

      CTRL-P = Paste.

    • B.

      CTRL-X = Cut.

    • C.

      CTRL-C = Copy.

    • D.

      CTRL-N = New.

    Correct Answer
    A. CTRL-P = Paste.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is CTRL-P = Paste. In most applications, the quick key for pasting is CTRL-V, not CTRL-P. CTRL-P is commonly used for printing in many applications.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    In most applications, the commands CUT, COPY and PASTE are located in this menu:

    • A.

      File.

    • B.

      Edit.

    • C.

      Tools.

    • D.

      Help.

    Correct Answer
    B. Edit.
    Explanation
    The commands CUT, COPY, and PASTE are commonly used for manipulating text or objects within a document. These commands involve editing the content by either removing or duplicating it, and then pasting it elsewhere. Therefore, it makes sense for these commands to be located in the Edit menu, as it is the menu that typically houses options related to editing and modifying the content of a document.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    If you've saved your file once already, you can do a 'quick-save' by pressing:

    • A.

      The F1 key.

    • B.

      The F7 key.

    • C.

      CTRL-S.

    • D.

      CTRL-A.

    Correct Answer
    C. CTRL-S.
    Explanation
    The CTRL-S key combination is used to perform a quick-save. This means that if you have already saved your file once, pressing CTRL-S will quickly save any changes you have made since the last save. The F1 key is typically used to access help menus, the F7 key is often used for spell checking, and CTRL-A is used to select all the text in a document. Therefore, the correct answer is CTRL-S.

    • B.

      A dialog box will appear.

    • C.

      A drop down menu will appear.

      The tool only works if an object is selected.

    Correct Answer
    A. There are more tool options available.
    Explanation
    The little black triangle in the bottom-right corner typically indicates that there are additional tool options available. Clicking on the triangle will reveal a menu or panel with more options related to the tool being used.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    For what is considered "high quality" or "print resolution", your images should be set for:

    • A.

      72 pixels per inch.

    • B.

      96 pixels per inch.

    • C.

      300 pixels per inch.

    • D.

      2,000 pixels per inch.

    Correct Answer
    C. 300 pixels per inch.
    Explanation
    For high quality or print resolution, images should be set to 300 pixels per inch. This resolution ensures that the image will have a crisp and detailed appearance when printed. Lower resolutions like 72 or 96 pixels per inch are typically used for web or screen display, where the image doesn't need to be as detailed. Setting the resolution to 2,000 pixels per inch would be excessive and unnecessary for most printing purposes.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    The term "opacity" goes hand-in-hand with _______ since they are opposites.

    • A.

      Transparency.

    • B.

      Anti-aliasing.

    • C.

      Layering.

    • D.

      Rasterizing.

    Correct Answer
    A. Transparency.
    Explanation
    The term "opacity" refers to the degree to which an object or substance allows light to pass through it. Transparency, on the other hand, refers to the quality of being able to see through an object or substance. Since opacity and transparency are opposites, they are closely related and often used together to describe the visual properties of an object or image.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    For use of an image for web (or to downsize for email) the resolution should be:

    • A.

      100 dpi

    • B.

      92 dpi

    • C.

      72 dpi

    • D.

      200 dpi

    Correct Answer
    C. 72 dpi
    Explanation
    When using an image for web or downsizing it for email, a resolution of 72 dpi is recommended. DPI stands for dots per inch and refers to the number of dots or pixels per inch in an image. For digital display on screens, a resolution of 72 dpi is sufficient because screens typically have a pixel density of around 72 pixels per inch. Using a higher dpi would result in a larger file size without any noticeable improvement in image quality on digital screens.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    What does dpi stand for?

    • A.

      Damage per increment

    • B.

      Dots per integer

    • C.

      dots per increment

    • D.

      Dots per inch

    Correct Answer
    D. Dots per inch
    Explanation
    DPI stands for "dots per inch." This term is commonly used to measure the resolution of an image or the printing quality of a printer. It refers to the number of dots or pixels that can be placed within a one-inch span. A higher DPI indicates a higher level of detail and clarity in the image or printout.

    Explanation
    The group of tools consisting of draw, selection, heal, and brush all perform different functions related to editing or manipulating images. However, the commonality among them is that they all involve making a selection or choosing a specific area of the image to work on. The selection tool allows the user to select a specific part of the image, while the draw, heal, and brush tools are used to make changes or apply effects within the selected area.

    Explanation
    The eyedropper tool is used to select the color at the cursor click. This means that when you click on a specific area of an image or graphic, the eyedropper tool will sample the color of that area and allow you to use it elsewhere in your design. This is particularly useful when you want to match colors or create a cohesive color scheme.

    Correct Answer
    B. Separate images stacked on top of each other.
    Explanation
    Layers in Photoshop are separate images stacked on top of each other. Each layer can contain different elements such as text, shapes, or images, and they can be edited independently without affecting the other layers. This allows for greater flexibility and control when creating and editing images in Photoshop.

When the user hovers the mouse cursor over a tool, a small box or popup appears with a brief description or explanation of what that tool does. This helps the user understand the functionality of the tool without having to click on it.

      Art brush tool

    • D.

      Quick selection tool

    Correct Answer

    Explanation
    The quick selection tool would be the best tool to use for selecting around an object. This tool allows for easy and precise selection by automatically detecting and selecting similar pixels within the image. It saves time and effort compared to manually selecting or using other tools like the crop tool, red eye tool, or art brush tool, which are not specifically designed for object selection.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Softens hard edges or reduces detail in an image." This option refers to a common image editing technique known as blurring. By softening hard edges or reducing detail, the image becomes less sharp and more smooth. This can be useful for various purposes such as creating a dreamy effect, reducing noise, or emphasizing certain elements in the image.
