A_B_C Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Hi everybody, (1.) I do not know if this has been already suggested, but I would find it very useful, if you were able to copy a layer in the layers list just by option- (or cmd-) drag within the list hierarchy. I am well aware that you can use "Edit > Duplicate", but in complex layer structures it is sometimes very convenient just to be able to drag-copy the layer to the desired point in the hierarchy by a single move ... (2.) It’s very handy that you can use any layer A as a mask for any other layer B, simply by making B a child of A (see my screen shot). But once this is done, you cannot transform the "mask" layer A independently of the child layer B. In order to achieve this, you have to (a.) break the parent-child relation between B and A, (b.) transform the parent layer B, and (c.) restitute the relation. I find this very cumbersome. It would be fine if it was possible to transform a parent layer independently of its child layer(s) ... or ... am I missing something?

Staff Ben Posted January 7, 2015 Staff Share Posted January 7, 2015 2) You are not missing anything. It's something we've discussed as I would find it useful.
