Ctrl-F4 does nothing…..its Alt-F4

In MDI (multiple document interface) applications, the standard keyboard shortcut to close a document but not the whole program is ctrl-f4. Alt-f4 closes the program, not just the document. That said, I don’t believe Photoshop uses MDI, since I believe MDI applications require all the individual sub-windows to remain inside the program window. That’s certainly not the case with Photoshop.

My problem isn’t with ctrl-f4, which works fine for me. It’s alt-f4 that doesn’t work for me in Photoshop. Even when I clear all references to f4 out of the PS keyboard shortcuts, it performs a paste action. Huh???
