Swapping between maps jiggles the selected layer and groups #3282
Macksaur posted onGitHub
Problem
When I am moving around multiple maps and copy/pasting pieces as source material and I swap back to the target map I find all the groups closed and the layer I was on forgotten and instead replaced with a "best guess" at a layer with the same name.
Map A:
- Group1
- Objects
- ActualTarget <-- this layer is selected
- Group0
- Objects
Map B:
- Group1
- Objects <-- this layer will be selected in order to copy objects
Swapping between Map A -> Map B
and swapping back to Map A
after selecting some objects from Map B
it places me in Group0/Objects
when I return to Map A
instead of Group1/Objects
, not that it matters because I had selected the layer Group1/ActualTarget
before I left Map A
, intending to paste there.
Goal
I want to be able to edit multiple maps simultaneously with complex group structures and copy/paste between them onto different layers without having to constantly find the layer I was previously on.
1) Remember the open/closed status of group layers when switching maps 2) Remember the selected layer when swapping between maps 3) If none of the above, make a better guess at the layer including group structure?
