CS3 better for color corrections

I am a professional retoucher and image editor.15 plus years. I work exclusively in Photoshop.

The Adjustment layers in CS4 have too many changes and eliminated features.

1. An Adjustment layer with in a layer set with layer set mask. Disables the numeric read out of placed color samples in the info palette!

2. No way to cycle points on a curve!

Why? Why? Why?

In CS4:

1. Have you got the Mask targeted or the Layer Set folder itself?

and

2. Use the Plus and Minus keys to cycle through points on a Curve in CS4.

Also investigate the TAT ("Pointy Finger" tool) in the Adjustments panel.

Yes there should be eyedropper checkboxes in the options bar. One would be useful … "Ignore masks". And another "Ignore adjustments"
