Hi,
I am not able to use bracket keys on my keyboard as shortcuts...
The reason is that I have to combine "Alt + 8" and "Alt + 9" to obtain "[" and "]", and whenever I press "Alt", the colour picker is selected...
I know I can change shortcuts, but I didn't want to. Is there any other way to solve my issue?
Hope that my question makes sense...
Regards!

For all of you to know the best and fastest way I discovered to change brush size & hardness regardless of your keyboard language is this:
Once you have selected the brush tool place the mouse over the image.
Press Alt key (I know the colour picker appear but don't mind) + right mouse button and then move the mouse right/left to change brush size and up/down to change hardness.
That's it! ... quick, simple and visual!
PS: This is PC+CS5 ... don't know if it works on Mac. Remember to upvote! ;)

My solution will be simple, I have ordered a photoshop cover from KB Covers and I will change the keyboard layout to US when using Photoshop.
I believe the problem is the same with Spanish keyboards, Rai Uriarte...
It is painful to code and open all these "{" using "Command + Shift + 8", maybe I should think about using an English layout for coding all the time.

16,593 PointsWhich version of Photoshop do you have? I know Adobe has made keyboard shortcuts for other languages: https://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5346.
I think in the end though you'd still have bind them unfortunately.
