I have had this proble for several years. Everything posted on Adobe Community is wrong as always. Google search is never a help. The only way to effect only one layer witought taking 20 steps is to deleate Adobe and use a different software. Almost all editing softwares can do this with only a simle step or two. They are also cheaper and will have a significanly better work flow. Any non-Adobe software will do.

Despite having said arrow, the adjustment layer still does affect all layers. I used the magic wand to make several selections (of flowers in a bouquet) and created for each via the small Plus sign + a new layer of it. I wish to change the curve of every single flower.

I found the answer. In the Properties tab there's a small icon at the bottom that looks like a square box with arrow down. It means to only apply to the layer below. Click on that and it should work 🙂
