Andrew D Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 Say when we are doing an image, and we have finished working on a layer or layers, say when you've got a certain part done, but it clutters up the entire space of the layer bar, making it awkard to work with the layers you want. In my case, I only have less than half an image done, yet I have around about 23 layers on the picture, and makes in cluttery for working on the other place, so can you make a way so that you can choose to hide certain layers from the layer bar? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leif Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 I think this is something Rick has talked about for v4.0.

Hellfire010 Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 Personally, I would prefer layer grouping rather than hiding certain layers in the layer window. Basically, in this idea, layers would be categorized into sections. For example: Character Hair Pupil Eye Color Eyes Clothing Color Skin Color Outline Background Road Lines/Markings Road Clouds Sky Grass Dirt Etc... Where layer groups, such as "Character" and "Background" would have a collapsable option, effectively 'hiding' those layers in the layer window for the time being. Layer categories could also have a checkmark to hide the entire section on the canvas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myrddin Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 Leif said it, I'm quoting it: Layer "folders", or the ability to organize layers in a hierarchy -- I want this too, and it depends on some major plumbing work being done. This would be a Paint.NET v4.0 level of feature. No ETA. Rick thinks this be good too.

Hellfire010 Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 Just figured I'd bring it up in this post to answer Andrew D's question. I knew it was being thought about, but not everyone knows that. Can't wait for 4.0.................................. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sozo Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 Can't wait for 4.0... I hope you can. Another idea along these lines is, when you de-activate (you know what I mean, when it's invisible) a layer, the icon thing in the layers tool bar could be minimized, or something along those lines.

Andrew D Posted October 3, 2007 Author Share Posted October 3, 2007 Looks like for now at least, I'll have to put up with it. Oh well, off I go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
