Photoshop under IRIX

Any help on this would be appreciated . . .

CTRL + leftclick can select the contents of a layer on a Win-based PC running PS 4, 5 or 6.

What key or key/click combination will perform the same function in Photoshop 3.0 under Silicon Graphics IRIX 6.5.15?

I need some alternative to "selecting all" on a layer then nudging with the move tool.

Thanks,
Dave
 
Welcome aboard silicon! :) I'm sorry that I can't help you with your question as I'm not familar with IRIX. Hopefully, there will be someone along soon enough who is knowledgeable enough to do so. ;) In the meantime, enjoy your time here!
 
I suppose you better psot this also on the Photoshop forum at Adobe's site as chances are that you will have to wait too long around here.
 
What’s ironic is that a while back, Adobe had an IRIX version of Photoshop available for a number of Silicon Graphics computers. I played with an SGI O2 workstation that had it running, and it operated exactly like its Windows counterpart. Surely it wouldn’t be difficult to take the work done for the IRIX version and apply that to a Linux edition? Probably not — programming for IRIX, Linux, and the Mac OS are almost certainly as unalike as it gets in many ways.

Finally, there’s the problem of third-party add-ons. Photoshop has a giant library of plug-ins, and many Photoshop users are married to their plug-in collections. Said plug-ins would not work on Linux, unless a) they were rewritten from the ground up (not terribly likely) or b) the Linux edition of PS had, say, some kind of back-end into Wine that allowed the plug-in to run correctly. There’s always the possibility of running the Windows edition of Photoshop in an emulated Windows session or in Wine, but that sort of defeats the point.

So if Adobe ever bothers to offer Photoshop for Linux, I suspect it’s going to be for very specific breeds of Linux, and not Linux generically. I’m dead certain Adobe is not about to make Photoshop into an open-source product; they’re going to be as stalwart about this as Microsoft is about Office. But again, it’s a question of how much Adobe feels it’s likely to get back for that effort — which, at this point, is probably not a lot at all.
 
Adobe Photoshop is a popular image editing tool that was created by Adobe Systems. As of this writing, it is the industry leader in the field of image editing. It is primarily used for altering images such as bitmaps, but it has a number of other capabilities as well. Virtually every company that deals with image editing uses Photoshop, and it is used by novices as well as serious professionals. There are software packages for Windows, Mac OS, and many even work on Linux. While the SGI IRIX operating system was supported in the past, it is no longer being offered for this operating system.

Adobe Photoshop has a number of powerful uses. It can be used for printed documents, or it can be used for documents that are presented on web pages. The newer versions of Photoshop come with Adobe ImageReady, and tool that is meant for those that wish to publish images on the web. Though Photoshop is just one of the many software tools that is offered by Adobe Systems, it is one of the most well known. It can seamlessly be used with other Adobe software programs such as After Affects, Adobe Premiere, and Adobe Illustrator. Photoshop is commonly used to create professional covers for DVDs. In addition to images, software packages such as Adobe CS are used for the creation of DVD menus.
