Custom Layers
in progress
Philipp
Custom layer system that allows creating new layers, ordering and naming them
There would be different types of layers:
- Object
- Brush
- Mask
- Filter
- Grid

Just wanted to show support for a specific part of this, namely being able to reorder objects on their layer. Is this planned?
Ex. Having two trees on the same layer, and either via dragging on the sidebar or by right click menu, being able to reorder which is above the other on the same layer.
In the current system, this isn't possible, and would basically mean you only need a few layers.

Layers Sandwiched between Paint Layers

Having an equal amount of layers (-5 to 5) to what is currently above the Foreground Layer that sits on top of the Background Layer and below the Foreground Layer. Being able to use stamps on the base level would allow us to create textured bottoms of rivers, cliffs/ sunken ships/ cities/ monsters/ sea creatures/ mountains/ rocks that can then poke through the surface, or cut through to lower levels of dungeons.
Painting on the Foreground Layer over the lower level stamps could be used rather than using the Top Layer to cover stamps.

With a Custom Layers feature thats currently in development, this will be possible as it will allow reordering layers freely.

Option for more grid segmentation
t
tensen01
Right now the grid square sides are only divided in half, I would love the ability to toggle how many segments I want a square to be divided into, and have the snap follow these segments. Like the ability to have 3, 4 or 5 segments per side, especially since in most game a single square is 5 feet, so having it divided into 5 or 10 would be great for map making. Maybe have it a slider, and the ability to show these segments in like a dotted line.

This will be possible with a new Custom Layers system thats in development.

Create custom Layers, export layers individually

It would be great if I could create custom layers so that I could sort my project better and export them individually, in order to for example animate the trees

While this sounds great, what would really help me would be the ability to modify objects' position within 1 layer, instead of just chronological order.

Anonymous This!!!!! I end up using way more layers than I would otherwise need to just to get the overlapping right and that sometimes messes up the shadows. I think it is Powerpoint that has a good system where you can move things forward or back one step, or you can move something all the way forward or back.

Increase layers from 10 to 20 or more?

There are layers within the layers in regards to individual assets, But increasing this to -10 +10 from the current -5 +5 would be great. Having a wider range to play with would be awsome.

We will update the layer limit together with the custom layers project. I will merge this in with the main request.
