    Why Adobe, Why? Selecting multiple type layers causes character palette to go loco.

      I've had this issue since 2005. It's always been there and it makes NO sense, and it's really a hassle.

       

      Select one type layer, as you can see below, the character panel reflects the setting correctly:

      Select TWO type layers, with the exact same charcater attributes.. what happens?

       

      This! Arrgh.

      It should say in the image above 36px/52px, not 12.16px (.16 px? Really?) and 17.56.

       

      I havent the foggiest idea where that even comes from.

       

      But the result for all photoshop users is that they have to individually change all the layers individually!

      I was hopeing charcter styles would help, i have yet to figure out how it even works, i've tried multiple times, it just doesnt do anything to the selcted type.

       

      Why does this geniune bug still exist?

       

      Would love to know if there is some logic i'm not getting?
