the easiest one to open the file in the default application will be double clicking on the file itself while you preview through Quick look.

What about the opposite? When you click on an item in a dock folder/stack, it opens using its default program. Is there a way to go from that to quick look?

ADMINISTRIVIA: actually, it’s “…into its associated…,” not “…into it’s associated…” as stated. ITS, comma period.

Actually, this isn’t a quick look shortcut; it’s a finder shortcut and has worked since the inception of OS X.

You can also use Command + O

Cheers!
