Question

Shortcut for "Rotate Clone Source" not working properly with German keyboard

Hi @9264381,

I'm getting nuts on this issue - hopefully s.o. can help me... So here's the problem - I hope I can explain it clearly in Denglish as a non native speaker 😉

 

I am working with a German keyboard (but with photoshop set to English for the UI). All the keyboard shortcuts are working properly in German (e.g. resizing the brush by using "ö" and "#"). 

Thus the keyboard shortcuts for rotating the clone source should be "ALT-SHIFT-ü" and "ALT-SHIFT-+". But these don't work. Instead the English shortcuts "ALT-SHIFT->" and "ALT-SHIFT->" are activated.

I could live with that but unfortunately these don't work on a German keyboard since the letters "<" and ">" are on the same button. So both shortcuts always result in the same because of using "SHIFT" button in both shortcuts. As a result I can rotate only in one direction.

I don't know why the standard shortcut for German keyboards doesn't work, neither do I know where to modify the keyboards for these commands. Any ideas?

(BTW: I have the same issue with the shortcuts for resizing the clone source, too.)

 

PLEASE save me from the madhouse! BR
