Hello,

on last update photoshop CC, i can't fill with back color anymore.

ctrl + del works fine, but alt + del, doesn't work anymore, have to switch color before. alt + del just make the "dong" sounds...

    There's a known issue with the "alt" key in the latest update. You need to press twice, then it will work.

    As Dag says, you are seeing a bug with the Alt modifier key that is present on Windows. Pressing twice will work , but if you really must have a single keystroke then write an action-it's nothing difficult just record alt-backspace, alt-backspace and save the action using F2 as the keyboard shortcut. F2 is Photoshop's shortcut for 'cut' but so is ctrl-x which I suspect most people use. Of course this will just work for filling with the foreground color but that is probably the one using the alt key people use most.

    Yes, that's what I meant by "known issue".

    I assume there will be a 19.0.1 shortly that addresses this. It's a pretty irritating bug.
