I’m getting a lot more "Could not farfle blag because of a program error" messages, when I used to get more specific messages. It’s particularly scary because previously, the only time I ever got a "program error" message would be a situation where PS had completely stuffed itself, and wouldn’t save files until I would quit and restarted it. So when I see that error message, my heart skips a beat, and I assume I’ve lost work.
If you try to move a selection when your current layer is hidden, you’ll get a "program error" message now: you used to get a "Could not move the selection because the target layer is hidden" error. You’ll also get it if the clipboard is empty and you try to copy a selection from a hidden layer.
It seems most of these generic error messages have to do with hidden layers, the behavior of which changed fairly dramatically with CS2 (in that layers do not auto-unhide when you select them), so I’m not surprised by this. But anyway, I think they need fixing. "Program error" messages really freak me out.
