The Bearded Bird Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 In some UI projects, it would be very helpful to have folders in the layers panel. This would probably be very helpful in other projects as well Quote The Bearded Bird Tor Vegard Graphic design • UI / UX • Branding • Logo Design Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted August 10, 2017 Staff Share Posted August 10, 2017 Hi The Bearded Bird, What would be the purpose of the folders? Can't you use a group or a layer with a custom colour to achieve a similar result (organisation purposes)? Or am i missing something?

The Bearded Bird Posted August 10, 2017 Author Share Posted August 10, 2017 A folder would be able to contain many artboards, and then make it easier to export. In my case, I have a document with 3 major groups of artboards, one with all icons used, one for the setup part of the app, and the last one is the main design on the app. They can all be visual on the canvas, but in the layers panel, this is a lot.

Staff MEB Posted August 10, 2017 Staff Share Posted August 10, 2017 In that case why don't you place these three groups of artboards inside of their own layer, so you end up with just three layers at the root of the layers stack? You can even set a colour for each one... Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
