Photoshop 27.6 ability to see and select steps in Actions

Question

With the new 27.6 Photoshop update, the Actions panel has had a makeover.

Before, you could expand an Action and select any point within that action to start from. Now, it appears you can only start the action as a whole.

Depending on where the file is in my workflow depends where I wish to start the action from. Does this ability still exist and I’m missing it? Or can this feature be brought back?

I can only see the gear function, that edits the action, but you can’t start the action half way through from here.

You can still edit action steps with the new interface - in three different ways:

with the action highlighted, the gear icon takes you directly to edit
right-click and “edit action”
click the three dots, ditto

I think this interface works well. A very welcome change for me is that you launch the action with a single click. It’s the best of normal and button mode, rolled into one.
