Custom shortcut for changing brush size?

[Stryver]

Hey,

So I recently switched from an iMac to a Windows Pc and what absolutely annoys me, is the shortcut for changing the brush size...

I'm painting on a Wacom Cintiq and there you need to press Alt + the button on the pencil, which to me feels pretty unnatural, since I'm used to pressing command + alt on the mac. Felt much more intuitive.

I wonder if there's a way to assign the brush size to alt + strg or even better, alt + windows key?

Please tell me that should be possible... 

Thank you.

What JJ said... use your bracket keys on your keyboard to change your brush size - to the right of the letter P - [ ]. You can also right click on your canvas when using your brush.

Thank you both for the replies. However I do hate using the brackets, since they are "too far away" on the keyboard. I'm baffled at the fact that there seems to be no way to just make up my own hotkeys for that feature... So frustrating tbh. I just want to scale my brush size with the keys that I assigned.

Does you Cintiq not have buttons ring or some Wacon device for shortcuts? My Wacon Intuos tablet does. Go for wacom accessory for the cintiq https://estore.wacom.com/en-US/expresskey-remote-accessory-us-ack411050.html

You can reassign them under keyboard shortcuts (tools), set them to Q and W keys for example.

Brush is the tool  Brush size changing is not a tool  but Photoshop has has two shortcut [] that you can not change you can set device that have buttons, wheels etc to keyboard keys you can set them to  [ and ].    B is the brush tools shortcut  you can edit tool shortcut and change it not to be B be something else..

Does your cintiq have an Express Wheel or Touch Ring?  That's usually my go to method of adjusting brusg size.
