Suggested Feature for Sketchbook iPad version - Multi-Layer Select

Anonymous — Wed, 10 Jan 2018 18:20:37 GMT

First let me say, I love the Sketchbook app and use it on both iPad Pro and my desktop Mac.

One feature I find missing from the iPad version though is the ability to select multiple layers at a time - which would then allow you to either move them around or resize them, etc. Very much hoping this will be a near-future version addition. Would prove very useful indeed.

Perhaps there is already a way, and I'm just not aware of it?

Thanks,

Johnathan

I have added it to an existing SUGGESTION. Another user wanted to be able to group layers on mobile as well.

Thank you - I did a search but didn't see anything like that related to Sketchbook specifically. Must have missed that.

I appreciate your response.

Yes! Please! 🙂

this feature would be priceless when layering multiple drawings to fit a certain way, and then moving or scaling the assembled layers into other projects or to a different location within a drawing.

I agree - this is a very basic need when you are working with layers

Has there been any progress on this subject? Its been two years now. Being able to select multiple layers for me is the most important feature. Dont want to merge all layers, just to move things around... this would defeat the whole purpose of layers. If this feature is nonexistent, creating professional work is completely impossible and I will be switching to a different software.

Agreed. Still waiting for that also.

I would add grouping to the feature set as well. Multi-Layer select and grouping are core functions to most editing/sketching apps - I'm surprised that the features have still not been implemented.
