Ken.fi Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 it is not convenient to modify shortcuts in designer(Pixel Persona). I wanted to set B as only the shortcut of brush but even if I deleted the pixel tool shortcut which was B also when I press B it still switched from brush to pixel tool. I can't remember how I made it B as the only shortcut of brush but new problem came which is when I press B it switched between brush and zoom tool. what happened?

Alfred Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 A shortcut which is assigned to a group of tools will, when pressed repeatedly, cycle through the tools in that group. If a shortcut is assigned to a single tool, pressing it when the relevant tool is already selected will take you back to the previously selected tool. So if you have the Pixel Tool selected when you press B twice in succession, the Brush Tool will be selected and then the Pixel Tool will be selected again; if you have the Zoom Tool selected when you press B twice in succession, the Brush Tool will be selected and then the Zoom Tool will be selected again; and so on.

Yes, there are, but this was clearly a design decision (albeit a rather questionable one).
