sarituulia Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 This functionality really should be a standard feature so please add to the to-do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian_J Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Agree. I really miss having the ability (available in Photoshop and Illustrator) to Alt-click (Mac Option-click) a group to open it and all the nested groups within it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OO8973 Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 +1 This is what I'd consider a basic feature, I love the Affinity Suite but there's just a few annoyances and inconveniences which can really jar your workflow. Jonesy21 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

osarusan Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 +1 I love using layers to keep everything organized, but when they always start full collapsed down every time I open the file it's a pain. I'd LOVE an expand all/collapse all button. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, please. Follow the system-wide standard on macOS. Would be lovely. 😊 I have been missing this option sorely these days. 😥 Jonesy21 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eobet Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 +1 (It's also interesting to note that no matter how much you press ctrl+a in the layer panel and choose "collapse selection", you can never get everything to collapse... so the only workaround is a lot of manual clicking.)

Mugsy Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 +1 Surprised this isn't fixed yet. Along with the Alt or Option click for layer visibility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ctrl+A part didn't work because it will complete the "Select All" command instead (which IMO is what it should do) but manually selecting the layers and hitting "collapse selection" in the right click menu worked for me in Photo 1.10.0.1127 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonesy21 Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 This idea/request seems to have been around for ages now.....obviously like myself, there are a lot of converts from Illustrator who when using multiple parent layers with many layers attached to that parent find it frustrating when they all open unnecessarily! a lot of time therefore spent opening and closing layers. Be so glad when a workaround is adopted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup agree with what eobet says. Based on my experience, you can technically select all (ctrl + A) those layers, but it only collapses those groups that are visible. Hidden groups that have been expanded were not even included in the select all (ctrl + A) list. (I'd also have to manually click through to hide them) Would really help to be able to set a shortcut for this too.

loukash Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 Frankly, folks: Meanwhile I've memorized the "right-/control-click > Collapse/Expand Selection" gesture so that it doesn't get in my way at all. Essentially, if you want to collapse or expand all layers in the Layers panel, no matter how nested they are: Select the topmost object in the Layers panel Shift-select the bottommost object in the Layers panel > selection automagically changes to whatever the top level hierarchy objects/layers/artboards are Right-/ctrl-click one of those selected layers > Collapse/Expand Selection Quote MacBookAir 15": MacOS Ventura > Affinity v1, v2, v2 beta // MacBookPro 15" mid-2012: MacOS El Capitan > Affinity v1 / MacOS Catalina > Affinity v1, v2, v2 beta // iPad 8th: iPadOS 16 > Affinity v2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
