Frozen Death Knight Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Okay, so we all know about Power Duplicate that repeats the transformations of the previous layer as you keep repeating ctrl+J after having alt-dragged a layer on the canvas. What I would like to see is the same workflow being added to the new Linked Layers feature in 1.9. Right now you can't drag-duplicate a layer so it becomes linked with its original copy. I would suggest adding the shortcut ctrl+alt+drag as an alternative to alt+drag to duplicate a linked layer on the canvas. Then I would add the Power Duplicate feature into the Duplicate Linked operator as ctrl+shift+J so every layer remains linked after each copy while respecting the transformations made on the previous one. With these changes it would become a lot easier to work with complex repeating patterns since every layer would be identical to each others.
