Select next layer in Photoshop on a Portuguese layout keyboard

Hello,
As far as I know Option and [ or ] selects the layer above or below in Photoshop.
How can I do that on a iMac Portuguese layout keyboard?
Thank you.

You are correct that Option with a square bracket key selects the layers on an American English keyboard.

 

I can think of one thing for you to try. Can you go to the Layer menu > Arrange and see what the shortcuts are for moving layers? On my keyboard, it uses the square backets with either Cmd or Cmd+Shift.

 

If you see a character in this menu that is used instead of the square brackets, maybe that's the key you are looking for. It may or may not work, but it's worth a try.

Hi Jane,

 

The problem is that the shortcuts I have on Layer Menu > Arrange are the same as yours.
Cmd or Cmd+Shift + square brackets 😞
I had the same problem with the shortcuts to increase and decrease the brush size but in this case I managed to change them to ‘<‘ to reduce brush size and ‘Shift+>' to increase brush size via Keyboard Shortcuts.
In this case, I can't find where the shortcuts are in order to change them.


* Wait! Finally, I already figured it out with the help of your tip.

Obviously they are hidden in Keyboard Shortcuts > Layers > Arrange… 😜

 

Thanks for your help.
