I installed PS CS on my new WinXP laptop and have been trying to configure my Keyboard Shortcuts like I have on my desktop Win2000 system.

When I try to assign Shift+F2 to "Image > Adjustments > Levels" I get an error saying that it is "already in use by the action titled Flatten Image which overrides this command". When I look at "Layer > Flatten Image", it’s blank. When I try Shift+F2, it does a Flatten Image.

Anybody have an idea of what I can try to fix this?

Look at your Actions palette. Is there an Action titled Flatten Image? If so, change the key combo it’s assigned to (double-click on it).

That was it! It was in a set of "Commands.atn". I don’t remember if I loaded it or it was there by default.

Thanks Ed!
