kirk23 Posted November 18, 2021 Posted November 18, 2021 A mask for example where we could write a math formula like LayerA + LayerB * layerC executing the calculation on the fly. That way we could get rid of super complicated nested groups and mask stacks . Gazillion of layers and linked layers you can easily lost among. It would keep the layer stack simple and easy. Let you compartmentalize the whole construct in a simple way without a complex naming and tagging system . A way to keep essential part as layers and technical stuff hidden in expressions. Perhaps as a part of procedural layer interface Lisbon and IPv6 2 Quote

The problem is they need to add "sampling from other layer" capabilities to procedural filter. Like some others that can do it "from beneath" or image And ability to remap pixels by other layer/image input like some other filters like Displace . Basically combine features that already have been codded in one place for more flexibility. ps. for moving Layers there is a painful workaround of using symbols brought from Designer, locking symbol containers and then "pixel content" linking to inside of one of symbols from another layer , That way we have something like chain links in Photoshop to sync moving of layers . It's crazy. I am asking to add transform links to Link panel for a year already. Lisbon 1 Quote
