Does anyone know if there is a way to select a layer inside a group?

I use the shortcut key Ctrl + left click to directly select a layer on the canvas, however as soon as you put the layers into groups you can only select the group the layer is in...

Thanks in advance!

expand the group ,
then just ctrl+click ON THE ICON, not the layer !

rest is still the same !

even if there not in group, it should be like that.

Sorry I think you misunderstood! I'm talking about when clicking on the actual canvas, not the layers panel.

For example if I have a group called header with 3 layers inside it, I want to be able to directly select a layer inside this group by clicking on it on the canvas.

is this what you're looking for?

(check auto select and choose layer with the move tool, in the move tool options on top of canvas)
