disable alt + left mouse = moves window in Gnome? [SOLVED]

Does anyone have an idea of how to disable Gnome's short cut for moving windows. Alt + left mouse key interferes with some Photoshop feature apparently. Thanks.

been a while since i used gnome, but iirc its similar to the xfce4 one ...
[tools menu] [window manager] [prefs]
where you can define shortcut/hotkey combinations.
edit:
think its now
Applications->Desktop Preferences   (mouse) or (keyboard)

Thanks for the reply. I've been looking there, and there is an entry for keyboard shortcuts, but the mouse + left alt key isn't there to be changed. Could it be hardcoded? I've come over hardcoded thing in Gnome before that rather caught me with surprise. This would be another of those things...

Desktop -> Preferences -> Windows

There's a movement key, map it to the most useless key on your keyboard and you can use mouseclicks with ALT pressed in photoshop again.
