NEED THE COMMAND THAT OPENS "DUPLICATE LAYER" WINDOW

[mike23551318]

Hello,

I am trying to program "DEPLICATE LAYER" from Photoshop Elements 15 into the "Radial Menu" on my WACOM Cintiq Companion 2 tablet. This would be big time saver for me in my work. Could someone tell the specific command that will open the "Duplicate Layer" window?

FOR EXAMPLE: The command for "Layer Via Copy" is "Ctrl+J.".

Best,

-Mark

You should be able to define a Keystroke using the windows keyboard shortcut for Duplicate Layer in photoshop elements.

These are the windows Alt hotkeys.

For example, in photoshop elements if you press Alt L that opens the Layer menu and D is the shortcut for Duplicate Layer and the way to tell is when you press the Alt key and a letter for a menu like L for the layers menu the L is underlined as well as D on the Duplicate Layer.

In the Define Keystroke dialog for one of the Radial buttons press Alt L then release those keys and press D

Using that shortcut should open the Duplicate Layer dialog.

Hello,

Thank you so much for your reply. It's exactly the info I've been looking for. 

Just one follow-up question. I only have the on-screen key board on my Companion 2 tablet. Could you show me where the Alt key is located on the on-screen keyboard? I don't see any obvious marking for it.
