I installed the CS3 Master Collection that included Photoshop CS3 Extended. I’ve used Photoshop for going on a decade and I find the CTRL+ALT+I keyboard shortcut really handly to pop open the Image Size window.

Now, in this new version (don’t after a clean format, reinstall of my XP OS) the shortcut no longer works. I check and it still has CTRL+ALT+I listed next to the Image Size menu, but it does not work.

Anyone having this issue?

You can always right-click on the image title bar.

Yes, I’m sure there is a work around but this is obviously an issue I’m having with my system. I would prefer to resolve any issues where my software is not functioning properly.

Have you tried resetting your preferences as described in the FAQ.

<http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.ef4a07f/1>

You either have to physically delete (or rename) the preference files or, if using the Alt, Ctrl, and Shift method, be sure that you get a confirmation dialog.

This resets all settings in Photoshop to factory defaults.

A complete uninstall/re-install will not affect the preferences and a corrupt file there may be causing the problem.

I tried resetting the preferences but to no avail.

I’m avoiding having to do an uninstall/reinstall like the plague so If I can find what’s causing it and fix it manually that would be preferred.

I have thought about running the Adobe updater but I’m concerned that it may cause more problems that it would fix (as this has happed to me before with other apps). Everything else works great and this is the only issue I’ve noticed.

Does anyone know if the update for Photoshop CS3 Extended addressed his issue (or knows of another cause that might be behind it)?

UPDATE:

I have also recently tried creating custom Keyboard Shortcuts and applying the "Working with Text" set of Keyboard Shortcuts from the "Edit>Keyboard Shortcuts" menu, but still no luck.

Alt+Ctrl+C seems to work fine for selecting the canvas, as does all my other other shortcuts (IE: Ctrl+N for new canvas, Ctrl+A to select, etc…).

It seems the Alt+Ctrl+I is the only thing giving me an issue.
