ronnyb Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 I'm trying to expand or collapse a set of selected layers/groups from the Layers Studio, but Affinity apps don't allow me to do this en masse. My file has over 700 layers/groups and this is VERY tedious. Could you please add this functionality, in the same way changing visibility or locking layers en masse currently functions? Simply put, if I have a bunch of layers selected and I click the triangle to expand or collapse, apply that toggle to ALL selected layers, just like Visibility and Lock icons do. Another level of functionality for power users would include expanding or collapsing ALL layers/groups (even those nested within currently selected layers/groups) while holding down the Option or Control keys on the keyboard. These small things really make a huge difference in speed of workflow and productivity. Thanks for your consideration and all you do! pixeldroid 1 Quote 2021 16” Macbook Pro w/ M1 Max 10c cpu /24c gpu, 32 GB RAM, 1TB SSD, Ventura 13.6 2018 11" iPad Pro w/ A12X cpu/gpu, 256 GB, iPadOS 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl123 Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 Have you tried selecting all layers in the Layers panel then right-clicking and selecting Expand Selection? ronnyb, shushustorm and pixeldroid 1 2 Quote To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum.

That works thanks! The suggestion would still be more efficient and consistent with current UI controls.... pixeldroid 1 Quote 2021 16” Macbook Pro w/ M1 Max 10c cpu /24c gpu, 32 GB RAM, 1TB SSD, Ventura 13.6 2018 11" iPad Pro w/ A12X cpu/gpu, 256 GB, iPadOS 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shushustorm Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Does this work on iPad as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
