Subject: rectangular keys to change brush size on a non qwerty keyboard

Hi all, This is my first entry here, and I have a question that will probably be for non-English/American users. I use an azerty keyboard with Photoshop 7 under WinXPPro. So to change brush size with the rectangular brackets, I'm in a bit of a problem as on my keyboard they are the AltGr result of ^ and $. Setting my keyboard to nglish can help here, but then I lose the rest of the key-correspondance (A becomes Q, Z becomes W etc...) In itself this is annoying, but also a question of being on one's guard. But the problem is that I now have bought a Wacom Intuos 3 tablet, with keys that can be set to whatever one wishes. So, eveidently, I was looking forward to change my brush size in PS with two of these keys by having them set to [ and ] . Unfortunately, this does not seem to work. Hence my question to non-English users around here: has anyone managed to set the intuos 3 keys to [ and ]? Rightclicking works, as does the brushes panel, but those keys are really very handy to use. Thanks!

Well, from version 8 i think, photoshop supports custom key mapping (from file or edit menu i think you can acces it) where you can assign any key you wish - to most functions. With any older version, you have to use US keyboard, or find some workaround, for instance press F5, move brush size slider. This is actually my method, as it is more WYSWIG than keyboard enlargements. F5 dont works in psp 6 i think. Also, you probably know, that TAB toggles all the windows on and off, and shift-tab does the same, except it leaves toolbar on. S.
