Can anyone tell me what the heck shape layers was to supposed to make easier? Everytime I start a new path I get a new shape layer to boot. The old paths pallete worked great, if that path was selected, anything you did to it including seperate paths automatically got added to that path. Now, say I want to clip out a car and cut the windows out. If I draw a path for the window, a new shape layer is added. So now if I want to select both the car path and the window path, I cant. Shift clicking the other layer toggles its shape on and off. Yes I can goto my paths pallete and start a new path before I start using the pen tool but it’s counterintuitive. I’m used to being able to get right to work and now I have to catch myself because by default, using the pen tool adds a shape layer. If there was a way to make new paths default to the paths pallete instead of new shape layers I would be much happier, as it is now (since I DO have illustrator) it’s just a nuisance.
