[Ti] [OT] Photoshop CS's hidden feature...

[John]

Most of you who use Photoshop on a PowerBook G4 may know this, but I 
just stumbled upon it today:

Normally, in Illustrator or other Adobe Apps, there is some option to 
adjust type values point by point - either with a slider or arrows. 
Well, in Photoshop CS, there are no sliders or arrows - or so you may 
think. Basically, to go point by point (in most number box, not just 
type), you would have to put your cursor in the box, and press the up 
or down arrow keys.

HOWEVER, if you have your cursor in a number box (like point size), and 
move the cursor to the left of the text box, the cursor changes. Click 
drag to the left or right to change the values! This works in many more 
scenarios than point size - try it while adjusting levels, or opacity.

This may have been in PS 7, but, since I never read about new features 
extensively, it's new to me.

PS - yeah, this is sort of OT, but I did tag the subject line. ANd, for 
those who don't know about this or don't use PS - it is a very nice 
time saving feature.
