hi support,

in PS Studio, there is a functionality where you can hit and hold Alt on the keyboard, then click somewhere with the mouse and drag the cursor to select a column, which I believe is a helpful feature.

but when you hit Alt, some letters appear in the menu to help us open the menu without having to click it. when those letters appear, it is no longer possible to continue selecting text.

can this be modified?

thank you!

If you press and hold Shift + Alt, it will prevent the ribbon from displaying the letter shortcuts. Alternatively, pressing Alt a second time will exist the shortcut mode of the ribbon.
