I don't know how it happened or what I did, but all of the sudden my apple + w key won't close a window, and alot of the shortcut keys are different in Photoshop etc. Does anyone know what I might have done?

In a vaguely related vein, does anyone know if it's possible to change the window-cycle keyboard shortcut in Photoshop CS from Command-~ to Command-`? The reason I ask is that Adobe, in their questionable wisdom, have hard-coded said window-switching to use the actual ~ symbol. On a UK keyboard, the ~ symbol is achieved by pressing Shift-`. So, to cycle through windows in Photoshop, you have to do Command-Shift-`. Which is not fun or easy.

So. Does anyone know if it can be changed? I've looked through the keyboard shortcut thingy within Photoshop, but can't find anything. Nor does there seem to be an equivalent menu option that I can re-allocate using the System Preference's built-in keyboard shortcut modifying... thing.

Sorry for hi-jacking this thread, but this has been bothering me since CS came out, but I keep forgetting to ask about it.

Then why not do a search in the forums or post a new thread?

The search turned up nothing and because I don't like starting new threads when there's no real need for one; this thread is about keyboard shortcuts and has already been resolved, so no harm is using it for a related subject. But a new thread in the software forum? Hokey doke.
