I'm following the in-program tutorials and several times it says press {numbers} except when I literally press the numbers, nothing works?

This issue should be correctly in Photoshop 2020 v21.x. Let us know if you're still having trouble with the current version.

Hi Kelsey,

Sorry for the confusion with the in-program tutorials, which program are you using, and which particular tutorial are you working with that isn't working. 

Are you pressing the number keys, or using a numpad? (If numpad, is NumLock turned on/enabled?)

Get back with more details, and screenshots of the step you're following if possible.

Regards
Pete

What Kelsey means is that it shows the Command ID instead of the keyboard shortcut in the Learn panel.
Also, while editing the screenshots below (in a new document and with the tutorial document opened in a background tab), balloons started popping up with the same kind of bug. The balloons doesn't show after closing the tutorial.

Worked for me as well. Can you post the youtube video link? Are there any other commands associated with this command ID numbers?
For instance, we know now that {2207} = CTRL + T, but what about...
{1016} = ?

Same problems here, too.  Is this also a problem while using the app or just in the tutorial?

I'm also experiencing this issue, any response from the eng team? Thanks for your help @J453, At the very least just posting a map of numbers to key-codes would help users a lot.

Hi Jeffrey, thanks for putting this on the team's radar. Any update yet? Independent of a code fix, posting a map of {number code} to key sequence would be helpful. Seems we've got this so far:

{2207} = Ctrl + t
{1016} = Ctrl + d

Same problem (6/20/2019).  Tutorials are for people who don't yet know the terminology or the shortcut keys, so this problem is significant

Same problem here, with the number {2207} in the second tutorial (I said I was an Intermediate when I installed Photoshop if that matters), I think it also came up in the first tutorial. I can't even continue the tutorial because I don't know what I'm supposed to press. I'm using the latest version of Photoshop as of 8/5/2019 on Windows 10. I'll see if I can include a screenshot. I circled the problem  areas in red. RackMultipart20190805148101kq1-14fb3b2f-47c3-45cc-b9dd-902b893015c2-1350375748.jpg
