In CS5 through CS3, when in illustrator (PC version) with default preferences you could:
- First hold down the ALT key and then drag the cursor over multiple layers in the layers panel to select all the objects contained within those layers,
or
- First click a layer and then press and hold the ALT key while dragging the cursor to duplicate a single layer to a new location
in CS6 Both actions have the same outcome: duplicating the layer that was initially clicked
Does anyone know if the ability to select multiple objects via the layers panel by alt-click-then-dragging was removed/forgotten or if there is a preference that needs adjusting?
