What's Changed

In addition to the new features, Photoshop CS2 also changed the way some features worked from the previous version, Photoshop CS.

• File Browser (p. 12-13)
  Adobe Bridge handles all the tasks that you previously did in the File Browser. Flagging is now handled by star ratings. Files previously flagged are marked with one star. In Bridge, Ctrl+D (Win) or (Mac) duplicates an image rather than deselecting it in the thumbnail view.

• Placing a File (p. 20)
  Files that you place into Photoshop with the Place command now become Smart Objects.

• Clipping Mask Visibility (p. 100)
  To hide all layers except the clipping mask layer and the layer it is clipped to, Alt+click (Win) or Option+click (Mac) the layer's visibility icon. Previously, Alt+clicking or Option+clicking hid all layers.

• Multiple Layer Selection (p. 102)
  To add or subtract layers from a selection in the Layers palette, Shift+click (or drag) in the document with the Move tool and the Auto Select Layer check box selected. Previously, Shift+clicking linked and unlinked layers.

• Layer Grouping (p. 103)
  You can group layers using the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+G (Win) or (Mac). The shortcut for creating a clipping mask is now Ctrl+Alt+G (Win) or +Option+G (Mac).

• Loading a Selection (p. 104)
  To load a layer as a selection, Ctrl+click (Win) or (Mac) the layer's thumbnail in the Layers palette. Previously, you could click anywhere in the layer.

• Merging Layers (p. 110)
  To merge all visible layers into a new layer, press Alt (Win) or Option (Mac), click the Layer menu, and then click Merge Visible. Previously, you created a new layer and selected it before merging. To merge any two layers, select them in the Layers palette, click the Layer menu, and then click Merge Layers. You can still merge two adjacent layers in the Layers palette by selecting the top layer and then choosing Layer Merge Down.

• Layer Linking (p. 111)
  The layer linking column was removed. To link layers, select multiple layers and click the Link Layers button at the bottom of the Layers palette. Some menu commands that work on linked layers have been changed to work on multiple layers.
