Resize brush shortcuts not working

Hi, hope someone can help me...

 

I can't use any of the shortcuts I know to quickly resize brushes in photoshop.
For me, ctrl +  alt + drag and the [ ] keys don't work.

If I press ctrl + alt it shows that double arrow to duplicate. And the [ ] keys don't seem to do anythig...

If i need to change brush size I have to go to the brush panel and change it there... it's not very efficient... 

 

Is it a bug or am I doing something wrong? 

 

Thank you in advance!

 

btw, I'm in a matebook 16,  with windows 11 and photoshop is version 25.4.

OMG, thank you! I've been working in a Mac for 6 years and now I have to work on PC and I'm a bit lost!  ❤️

 

¡For the keyshortcuts I had to install an english keyboard to my pc and I need to switch between the english and the spanish depending on what software I'm in!

You're welcome! If you're using a pen tablet you should configure one of the buttons to do alt + right click together, so you just have to press the button and drag.

Regarding the keyboard, if you want you can set your costoms keys for the size of the brush.

Just go on Edit→Keyboard Shortcuts → Tools.

Hi, ctrl + alt + drag works on Mac.

If you are on a Windows PC, the shortcut is alt +right click + drag

I just realised it might have something to do with the keyboard language...? But I have no idea how to fix it... 

My keyboard is in spanish but I have photoshop in english...
