Inpaint Keystroke Not Working


Recommended Posts

Does anyone have trouble with the keystroke (ALT-backspace) for Inpainting on Windows 10? The keystroke does nothing yet the inpainting tool works perfectly when selected from the toolbar. I even went into Preferences and changed the keystroke to something else and it still does not work. has anyone gotten a keystroke to work for the inpainting tool?  This is in the latest version of Photo. Thanks

Hello @Powaysteve,

I wish you a happy new year.

The shortcut J is set by default for the Inpainting tool,
likewise for the Red Eye Removal Tool, the Healing Brush Tool and the Patch Tool.
The individual brushes are activated by repeatedly pressing the shortcut Shift  + J
I hope it helps.

Cheers

ALT-backspace is the keystroke for the Edit > Inpaint command

Which is used when you have made a selection and wish to Inpaint whatever is in that selection
