Hi,

I used to be able to ctrl-click on any item in an image to select its layer, in the ‘layers’ pallete. However now in CS2, if the item i’m clicking on belongs to a layer which is part of a group, the group ‘header’ is selected in the layers pallete, instead of the actual layer. I know you can right-click to see a list of layers below the cursor, but this is less intuitive and slower. Does anyone know how to make PS behave like it used to, in this respect?

Many thanks in advance,
Tom
