Color picker quick toggle with CTRL does not work in 2020?

Post by LordKraken »

Good morning everybody,

A long time user of Paint Shop Pro, I only switched recently to 2020, which I like very much apart from a very small issue, very annoying to me still.

So I can easily switch between Brush (B) and the color picker (E) but I used (and prefer) to simply press CTRL while using the brush to get the color picker instantly. This was actually much faster than switching between the two of them.

How can I get that back?
(In the shortcuts customization panel, there is an option called "accelerator" but there is only one choice there which is default...)

Thanks a lot!

CTRL while using the Paint Brush works on my PSP 2020. The Picker is selected and I can choose another color and continue to paint with the new color.

Try a reset (launch PSP while holding down the shift key until PSP asks you to confirm). Save your workspace before doing the reset.
