Indicator line when re-ordering layers

Concerning the Layers Panel, Pro Motion doesn’t use an indicator line highlight where a drag and dropped layer will go when dropped. Standard stuff in a layer stack. I was surprised to find that Pro Motion doesn’t try to indicate where the layer will go when dropped.


Here I’m dragging “Layer 17” to go below “Layer 4”. Blue line confirms for me where it’ll go if I drop. I can be fast and loose, all I’m paying attention to is the blue indicator line.

When drag dropping layers in Pro Motion I do it much more carefully. I’m still not sure where exactly the “hitbox” is to make the layer go where I want, just try to drop exactly on the line between layers. Takes a few tries sometimes.

Wasn’t aware of that being a problem.

Available with 7.2.5 (pending maintenance update)

Fantastic update, but FYI - the green line will get stuck if you drag a layer to the top or bottom of the stack and continue to drag until the cursor changes.


^ Green line persists until another layer is dragged.

I see. It happens when you drag past the first or last layer entry.

Fixed with upcoming V7.3
