How to disable keyboard shortcut option [ ], which cycles layers.

Hello,

Does anyone know to disable keyboard shortcut option [ ], which cycles layers? I've looked through the keyboard shorcut menus and I can't find it.

The problem is when I'm airbrushing with my Wacom tablet and I'm sampling colors with the option key on my tablet and also using the touch ring to change brush size, I sometime inadvertently will try to adjust my brush size while pressing the option key, which is the same as pressing option + [ or ], which is the command to cycle through the layers. What happens is I end up airbrushing on the wrong layer. Super annoying!

Thanks in advance!

Sorry spoke to soon.

The suggestion i posted doesn't work.

That must be one of those Keyboard Shortcuts that is hardwired into Photoshop and has no provision to change it.

Hi Jeff,

Yes, right. I did see the post just before you edited or deleted it. What you were suggesting was the key command for brush size which is [ ]. What I'm hoping to do is disable " option + [ " and " option + ] " Which when pressed repeatedly will cycle through the layers.

Thanks for you post.
