AutoCAD VS. Photoshop

[Anonymous]

Hey folks,

If I have AutoCAD and Photoshop open at the same time I notice that I cannot ESCAPE out of a command in AutoCAD.  

Anyone know why?  Not a major issue... I've just noticed this has always been the case over the 10 years that I've used the programs.

Thanks.

Hi,

>> I've just noticed this has always been the case over the 10 years

Have you asked this question in the Adobe forums too?

Photoshop is "stealing" the ESC key for many applications, not just AutoCAD, so it's more an Adobe job to be done (my personal opinion).

as a work around you can create a second "escape key" in the cui.
