Thanks for the reply, that's just what I was trying to do. I don't think I would have ever figured out that was the way you were supposed to do it without someone telling me (and if it was in the manual I couldn't find it). As for things that are a downgrade, one good example is seen above. For every filter and adjustment in PSP you have a dialog box as is seen on the left with a side by side comparison, a field to save a preset specific to that window and several different view modes. PS's dialogs lack these things. Not that big a deal but I'd definitely consider PSP's way to be superior. Mostly it's just ergonomics. I'm sure it's possible to do anything you can do in PSP in PS too, it just takes more steps and more time, and requires deliberate study to know what to do, whereas PSP can be figured out pretty easily by intuition alone.
