SimonBoonstra Posted December 22, 2022 Posted December 22, 2022 Dear team When I work with a high monitor resolution then it is hard to see the different groups. Especially when I use the dark theme. I have a suggestion. It would help, if the groups could be colorized. Maybe adjustable in the settings, or similar. Unfortunately there is no option for this. Or I haven't found the correct setting. I have included a screenshot with coloring of the groups how it would be easy to see the groups mor clearly. Maybe a bit more descent. I have just drawn it quickly to visualize what I mean. Best regards Simon François R 1 Quote
Komatös Posted December 23, 2022 Posted December 23, 2022 @SimonBoonstra If you ever have a document with a large number of layers, it quickly becomes overwhelming for the brain and you are much more likely to be distracted from your work by the play of colors.

Ron P. Posted December 23, 2022 Posted December 23, 2022 I'm afraid that would be completely disruptive to work. Try working with those high-contrast colors for very long and you will probably have a fair headache.

Pšenda Posted December 24, 2022 Posted December 24, 2022 Color-coding the nesting structure to make it easier to distinguish between parents and children is a fairly common practice in IDEs. But it must be done sensitively using decent color transitions so that it does not have a distracting effect.

SimonBoonstra Posted December 25, 2022 Author Posted December 25, 2022 Okay. I do it with the contrast settings at the moment. Yes, I meant using not so strong colors. The screenshot I have made is only to visualize what I mean. Quote
