P: Changes my custom keyboard shortcuts between launches

When i make a keyboard shortcut for playing an action ( Ctrl+shift+< ) it is saved and I summarize and save the shortcuts but the next time I open Photoshop, the shortcut has been changed to ( Ctrl+shift+&) which is impossible to use... This is most likely a bug that should be fixed!

It looks like this was fixed in Photoshop 19.0 or later. Let us know if you're still having issue.

Sure thing, Simon.  I've added your email (listed here) to the bug, so when I close it, I'll set myself a reminder to message you once the fix goes public.

Have a great day!

THAT was the secret step!  Closing PS and relaunching.  Okay, now I *AM* seeing this bug and I will log it.

VERY wEiRd....sorry for the inconvenience and great catch!

Thanks,

Thankyou for trying. Just to be clear: I make the shortcut and accept it and save it. Everything is then working fine. But when I quit PS and then relaunch PS, the shortcut has been automatically changed from ctrl+shift+< to ctrl+shift+&

Howdy Simon,

Okay, I've got a US keyboard set to emulate a Swedish one.  With that setup, I cannot repro your problem.  I've also tried with a Turkish keyboard (same layout) set to emulate Swedish.  Also, no problem.  Could you please verify that your keyboard settings are all set to Swedish?  Also, do you have another keyboard you can try?  I'm trying to isolate any and all variables I can for this.  I'm just not seeing it.

Thanks,
David

The computer is swedish all around except for photoshop! So keyboards and everything is swedish. Your keyboard says the same as mine the key < changes to > when holding shift.

Howdy Simon,

Let me make sure I understand this.  You are running English Photoshop on Swedish Win10.  Now, when you say you have a Swedish keyboard, do you mean physically, digitally, or both?  In other words, is the computer set to recognize the keyboard as Swedish?

Looking over my Win10 machine with a digital Swedish keyboard, the & character is only available by pressing SHIFT+6.  Are you seeing the same thing?  And the < key's SHIFTed version is >, right?  Or are you seeing something different?

Thanks,
David
