It's a PS issue of CS3 and CS4 nor the CS5 and the CS6 presents this issue

I use SI 2011SP2 and Photoshop CS5. (In my previous PC I used to use Photoshop CS2 without problems) I downloaded a keyboard test software and Alt didn't work there either so I though it was a keyboard problem, and since my keyboard is Microsoft I installed IntelliType just to try and to use those nice shortcuts. It seems to work fine now or at least that's what I thought, but after reading this thread it may be a little too soon to smile. I have Photoshop loaded but I'm not using it too much, I'm working now with UVs since yesterday so that may be the reason why it is working fine now even with PS in the background. btw, ALT key alone does work, but ALT+2 to ALT+9 doesn't. ALT +0 and ALT+1 and some other combinations does work fine.

Closing Photoshop gets it working again. And its not a 2013 related problem I had it happen already couple of versions before. Im using default SI keyboard mapping.

Or is the Alt setting having a conflict with the multi-language switch context in Windows?

Since I'm on Windows I press Alt-7 for the Texture Editor and Alt-9 for the ICE Tree. But randomly, XSI will decide it no longer wants to recognize that and will do nothing when those keys are pressed, until I restart XSI. Alt-7 and Alt-9 do nothing until I restart. I have yet to find a cause for it. But at least it's fixed by relaunching Soft. Ideas? -- Tim Crowson Lead CG Artist Magnetic Dreams Animation Studio, Inc. 2525 Lebanon Pike, Building C.
