Ability to select, with one click of the mouse, all shapes assigned to a layer without selecting other

resized, etc.
Ability to change the color, line style, and/or texture on all of the shapes assigned to a particular

The following screenshot will be used to show how the
Layers
bar functions can be applied:
On the right side of the
Layer Bar
, each layer has a preview or thumbnail showing the shapes assigned to
that layer. Click on that thumbnail and all shapes on that layer will be selected.
To the left of each
Layer Name
, there is a small “+” sign. Click on it and the “
+
” will turn to a “
-
“ and that
layer will open to reveal each individual shape assigned to that layer.
Double click a layer name and you can change the name of that layer. Rest your mouse cursor over a layer
name and the number of shapes in that layer will appear.
Hide
and unhide layers by clicking on the eye icons (
Hide Layer
and
Show Layer
).
A hidden
layer will display the shapes in pale versions of their actual colors and will also prevent any movement or
resizing, etc. of those shapes. Also, any shapes that are hidden will not be sent to your cutter or to your
printer.
Change the order of layers using the arrow icons (
Move Layer Down
and
Move Layer Up
).
Shapes assigned to a higher layer will appear to be on top of the shapes assigned to a lower layer. This is a
useful feature for displaying how a paper piecing project will look when completed.
Lock and unlock layers by clicking on the lock icon (
Lock Layer
and
Unlock Layer
). A locked
layer prevents the shapes in that layer from inadvertently being moved or resized. It also allows the shape to
be displayed without an outer bounding box.
Change the
Color
,
Texture
, and/or
Line Style
for all shapes assigned to a particular layer by clicking on the
color palette icon (
Set Color for All Shapes
).
Delete a layer (and all shapes assigned to that particular layer) by clicking on the
Delete Layer
icon.
