I'm not saying that they
had to make the text tool work that way. I just meant that because of the differences in how they would normally work this either wasn't taken into consideration or they made a choice on which open object would get the focus of the arrow keys.
As for using C in the File Menu to close the active document.
Yeah don't know why they changed it either. But it's not a big enough deal for me to worry about.
However here's how you change that...hopefully I can explain it well.
Open up the customize options again View -> Customize
Now with that dialog box open click on and open the actual menu. So in this case go over to the file menu and click on it allowing the menu to drop down.
Right-click on the option you want to change. In this case the Close command. Select Menu Text from the context menu that pops up. You should now have a dialog with the text "Close" inside of it. Add an ampersand "&" infront of the letter you want to be a short-cut. In this case the "C" so it should look like this "&Close" and hit okay. Now the close option can be selected by just pressing C when the file menu is open.
EDIT:
Oh I've got some extra news. Did some digging around. Apparently they had another tool called the object selection tool that would do the same for vectors as the pick tool does for rasters.
I'm assuming the raster tool was supposed to pick up both jobs but now no longer does. You can just hit "O" for that tool or add it to your tools from the customize dialog.
So that removes the need for that silly workaround.
