I know CS2 is amazing in that you can select more than one layer in the layer palatte by holding the Apple-Cmd key and selecting the layers. However, I'm missing a feature that I really like in previous versions of Photoshop when holding the Apple-Cmd key and hovering over the layer in the layer palatte window. Previously this changed the cursor into a cursor with a small marquee selection box which indicated that Cmd-clicking the layer would add a selection marquee around the areas of the layer in the file. Is there a way to make this happen in CS2? It was incredibly useful and I want to find another way just as quick to accomplish the same task.

It still works, but you have to position your mouse over the thumbnail rather than the name of the layer. Then it will work.
