It has been asked for a lot.

2. Re: Make it so "Step Backward" does NOT change layers
Reynolds (Mark) May 29, 2009 8:39 AM (in response to harry teasley)Yes I support this one. Default behaviour should remain as it is, but there should be an option or a preference, meaning that Command Option Z doesnt flip layers if you don't want.

3. Re: Make it so "Step Backward" does NOT change layers
fruityth1ng-T0qBnM Jun 4, 2009 7:25 AM (in response to tshill)I work in a gaming studio, and amongst the artists this is our number one problem with photoshop.
It's an especially big Gripe for me, since I'm the GUI guy, and work with a LOT of layers.
I recall asking for this myself a while back on these same forums, by the way - so Adobe, if you're reading this: PLEASE prioritize this. Thank you!

olias32 Jan 11, 2011 3:15 PM (in response to tshill)Seems a lot of people have this problem, and someone wrote a script to fix it.
See here: http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?p=1251347#post1251347
Also, note you need to copy the script in the Photoshop/Presets/Scripts folder for it to show in the Scripts menu. Once it's there, you can assign any keyboard shortcut to it - CTRL+Z of course
Photoschop CS3 and up i think.

Thanks, genius. That's why we're here. We went through the static documentation and found it wanting.
This history "feature" is seen by many as a "bug." Since it previously existed just fine in a different form, it's not inconceivable that Adobe could return it to its former state (or give us the option to do so).
