Toggle Single Layer Mode (PCB)

Shift+S

This is a critical shortcut that I use all the time. If you don't know about it, it will change your life. It changes the view so that only the active layer (plus any multilayer objects) is active and focused. Other layers still slightly visible, but grayed out in the background and not distracting. It's a godsend when you have heavily populated boards.

Also, while in Single Layer Mode, you can cycle between the layers using + and - on your numeric keypad.
