In my old version of PS (CS5), any time you use the Shape Tool, it creates a layer as shown below, consisting of a color picker and a vector mask. I'm not sure if "vector mask" is the right word, but it's the area where the vector path resides. Here is what my layers palette looks like. Perhaps newer versions of PS treat shape layers differently.

When I was experimenting with this, if I did not deactivate the vector mask, then curiously, each time I pressed Shft+Alt+Ctrl+T, the vector path would rotate and repeat itself 21 times all within the same one layer, rather than in 21 separate layers.
