Lock layers into a group

Post by Paul Fierlinger »

I've always wanted to ask for this: to have the ability to keep a selected number of layers locked with each other into a group the way they would behave when their thumbs are selected to move them right or left, but to have a special lock to maintain this grouping beyond the short lived thumbnail selection.

It could also be handy if the timing off several layers could be loced together

when you have outline on one layer and color on another. so if our add exposer delete image etc it happens on all the connected layer simultaniously

Agree on both sugestions.
And adding up to the "selected" state of instances, or layers or... would like to be able to make that an eyecathing colour, for working with two screens: it would make it easier to see your selected layer jumping in the corner of your eyes.
Would like to add a request for the ability to mark frames, so the marker is stuck to the frame it is placed in (like in Final Cut Pro for example).

Maybe the bookmarks should be called project marks and then a new feature called instance marks or image marks. which moved backward id a exposure was deletet ealier in the layer etc.
