Photoshop 7 is being a tad weird. It works fine, then sometimes it does an odd things in mid use. The CtrlZ for ‘undo’ and CtrlA for ‘select all’ no longer do as they should, It seems to sometimes read my keyboard as the European Continental Azerty keyboard, instead of the Qwerty one it is, reading ctrlZ as ctrlW and CtrlA as CtrlQ. They work fine if selected from the menus, of course, only via the keyboard do they sometimes go weird. It’s very annoying, I have to shut down Photoshop and re-open it to rectify it. When I open Photoshop again, they work fine, it just seems to change in mid use sometimes.
It also happens when I use File/Save AS, sometimes, when I type a name in the name text filed. A nightmare as I don’t know the azerty layout offhand, so can’t type in the name I need. Again, closing P’shop and re-opening sorts it for a while. This only happens in Photoshop, no other applications at all, and it starts out fine when I open it, it just seems to happen sometimes in mid use. The keyboard is always qwerty when I type within P’shop using the text tool and I don’t think it is my keyboard at fault, as it only happens with Photoshop.
I can’t think of anything I am doing to cause it to make these changes in mid use. It starts out ok with Undo and Select All keyboard shortcuts working fine and ‘File/Save As’ behaving as normally then, inexplicably, changes the behaviour. I’m not aware of any keyboard command that changes my keyboard to Azerty that I could be doing while using P’shop.
I tried reinstalling the application but to no avail. My PC, running Windows XP and is virus free, so I’ve run out of ideas. It’s most bizarre.
Anyone come across this or have any ideas. If anyone knows of a way to get a keyboard to change from qwerty to azerty via a keyboard command, would you let me know and I’ll see if I’m doing that? Don’t think I am, though.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks
