So was I. I searched everywhere trying to figure it out! I found nothing. I simply don't understand why Adobe would not have a comprehensive visual list of all layer thumbnail badges/Icons/symbols located in the thumbnails lower right hand corner!!!

Just for general information, I have played with the Frame Tool as an alternative to just using an ellipse as a placeholder. It's limited and and really does not accomplish the one thing it's supposed to do and that's to crop an image in a circle. You're still left with what is a rectangular document with what's essentially a useless mask.

Here's what happens when you try to stroke the frame...

I had to add another layer to stroke the ellipse with a layer style and lowered fill. Just another unnecessary step.

While I'm glad that we finally figured out the mystery of the frame thumbnail, I will stick with a more editable technique like I described above.
