instance layers
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
Description of Problem: Wasting a lot of time without that feature. Featre: the basic idea is just to be able to duplicate a layer as instance. All what you draw in the original layer will be drawed in realtime in the other layer and also the instance layer could be modified as scale, rotation and flips.. examples of use: Website: A lot of times when you design a website you have to set a style for all the boxes, if you change something in one box you have to do the same changes on the other boxes, in tha case could be nice jus to duplicate the layer as instance and move the instance layer to the correct positions and design the website faster. Illustration: If you have to draw a face, could be nice to duplicate the layer as instance and do a flip x of the layer to have then a realtime system to draw a face with the auto simetry. Honestly i think that this feature could be really usefull for a lot of cases and it´s something that no other softwares have.
