I guess you're probably on a mac, aren't you, Willis? It may be SHIFT+F and SHIFT+L. I've never used it on anything but a pc. You'd probably use COMMAND+/ to see hotkeys.

Weird... "F" doesn't work for me. I'll have to dig around in the settings and see what's up.

In lightroom, F toggles through normal, maximized, and full screen. I always work in full screen mode, though.
tapping spacebar is the zoom in/out hotkey, and holding it down gives you a temporary zoom and changes the cursor to the hand so you can drag the image on the screen.

Here are some other handy hotkeys for lightroom that I use all the time:
CTRL+/ shows all available hotkeys for the module you're in.
L toggles between normal, lights dim, and lights out modes. It's nice for previewing without any clutter on the monitor.
SHIFT+TAB hides/shows all flyout panels
TAB hides/shows left+right flyout panels

Question for you lightroom people:

In Aperture I can press the "F" key and it immediately goes to full screen mode. Pressing the "Z" key after that zooms in to 100%.

Is there any similar hotkey functionality in lightroom?

I find LR to be slow in general, the interface is so cramped and busy.

Sluggish uploads are a known problem. My computers can handle massive photoshop files but when I upload a 1gb card with RAW files to LR3 it just hangs for several minutes! Not a good start to LR3 but it's still just a beta.

I was talking about the general interface, too many clicks, and modes just to get simple tasks done.

Mine is fast. I use the 64 bit edition. Uploads are pretty okay too. I would rather deal with LR3 uploads than flickr'stupid uploading tool.

I find that the RAW converter in LR3 beta is better than the version that works with LR2, but I've only ever used the LR3 beta and the LR2 trial. I find LR to be slow in general, the interface is so cramped and busy.

Somewhat sluggish uplaods, but I thought that was due to my using LR3 on an older laptop, while my LR2 is on my tower. I'll play around with that some more and pay a bit more attention.

No problem warprints. Have you experienced the sluggish uploads with LR3?

I tried LR3 last night, and it did seem very sluggish, so I guess that was not just me. I couldn't believe my computer couldn't handle it.

Sorry - didn't do a good enough search. Seemed to have missed that topic all together when it was "hot" Thanks

I've played with Lightroom 3 Beta a bit, but not enough yet to form any opinions. Does anyone have any comments on the Beta yet?
