description |
Drag-and-drop is the most intuitive visual metaphor for layer management. The Raise/Lower Layer buttons are completely superfluous in this context and should be removed in favour of drag-and-drop.
As with Ilustrator, being able to click once and drag a layer or object to where needed is an essential feature for efficient layer management. It should indicate if it is being dropped between layers while dragged by a black line between layers/groups, or into a layer as a subgroup or into a group by a black box around a layer/group.
As per bug#171902, an expandable tree view where sublayers, groups and paths are indented is needed, so not only the current object within a group or sublayer being selected can be indicated, but so such detailed selection of parts of an object or group can be made via the palette.
Each group or path should of course still be able to be individually named. |
