Ctrl + Z (UNDO) — This command lets you go back to your previous step

Ctrl + "+" OR "/" (Zoom in OR out) — This command lets you zoom in or out of your canvas

Ctrl + G (Group Layers) — This command groups selected layers in the layer tree. pressing Shift to this will ungroup layers when the grouped layer is selected.
