A key shortcut problem

Post by macay »

The key shortcut Shift+Q for the Quick Mask Mode interferes with text input, with capital "Q" blocked. (Capital "N", though, does not seem to affected by the Shift+N shortcut, also native to Elements). The workaround is to deactivate the Elements' key shortcuts when typing - if you need capital Q, that is - but, perhaps, the Quick Mask Mode shortcut could be reassigned, eg. to Shift+Ctrl+Q? Unless there is an even better solution.

Thanks for letting me know. I do not think that ElementsXXL can detect when the text of a text layer is currently typed, so I guess the key shortcut has to be changed to Shift + Ctrl + Q as you suggested.
