so, when editing a text in type tool, i can type ESC and 'out' for edit the frame, size, etc.

but and the inverse way?

i want anything similar to windows F2. you type a key and can imediatelly edit the text, without need click twice with mouse

before press T, in Cs2:

after press T, in Cs2

but when I type any test, don't edit the label username. starts a function related to key at screen or tool box. Ex: if I type F, maximize the screen. don't write F in field

olhosa,

I believe I see what you mean now: after pressing T on the keyboard (or clicking the Type Tool), you need to click within the Type object to go on in it, which makes the second operation you wish to avoid.

Sorry, no way round it, I am afraid.

If you're on a Mac: Command + Shift + A.

On Windows: Control = Shift + A

It's the Command for "Deselect All."

don't work. the T key change the focus for insert a new block of text, not editing the old.
