Question to Blend Ranges


Recommended Posts

Hello everybody,

I have a layer with a gradient from white to black and adjusted the blend ranges,
see the screenshot.
Now my question:
With the shortcut CTRL + Shift + a click on the thumbnail (left on top layer),
is the selection smaller,
Via the context menu Select, selection from Layer is the selection bigger.
Why?

Thank you in advance.

 

PS: it would be nice, the shortcut Ctrl + Shift + a click on the thumbnail,  as macro recording to have.

Best guess is, Shift + Cmd (Ctrl) + Click takes a reading from all the layers and sets a selection, Cmd (Ctrl) + Click takes a reading just from the selected layer. I could be wrong!

I can't even find a reference to Shift + Cmd (Ctrl) + Click in Preferences > Shortcuts O.o
