The Alternate ALT key?

Hey there web people. The name is Matthew. I just bought Anime Studio Pro Version 5 and am working through a text book called "Anime Studio The Official Guide" by Kelly Murdock. I'm really excited to begin unlocking the potential of this program and have been doing really well so far. One thing I havn't figured out is why my ALT key doesn't seem to perform correctly. I am running Mac OS X 10.5.5 and working with a wireless kensington keyboard and mouse and anytime this book tells me to use the alt key I don't seem to get the desired results. I was wondering if anybody could offer up a solution to this dilemma. Could you suggest an alternate ALT key please?

uhmm, I work in windows, so i can't be sure of what is happening. can you say what exactly happen when you press alt? (and, of course, what do you really want to do)

Works on my mac without any problems. Do you have trouble in other programs too?

I just started using this wireless keyboard. Was hoping other people have had issues like this.

I don't have a Mac, but isn't the Mac equivalent the CMD key?

I came across the specific keystroke that I was hoping to use in that book. It was called pulling or pushing a color. Basically lifting the outline and fill styles from one object and putting them on a different object. The book was saying that you could keep several generic objects in your workspace just outside of the view with the specific styles that you want to use and recall them for new objects when you want to use them.

Inexplicably the alt key seems to work just fine now. Sorry to have troubled you.
