Normally I’ll collapse all layers in Photoshop that will never change into one layer and load that one layer into the Creator. If an object will change, move, or become invisible, (or get themed) then that will be a separate layer.
Yeah it’s a struggle. Sometimes send to back and bringing it up is quicker but still can be a pain. I think if you add a layer it should be inserted above the currently selected layer like Photoshop. That would be soooo nice. @Facer_Official
(Obviously the layers aren’t named as such, but it helps to name them in such a way to make it clear what belongs in what “group”
I’ll either create a new layer, send it to the back and manually drag it up so it’s higher and obvious it doesn’t belong in a section. IE: HEART RATE layer clearly wouldn’t belong in the MIDDLE EVENT area.
Similarly, I’ll duplicate a layer that’s close and rename it. So in this example, I’d duplicate LOWER LEFT and move it to the right of the watchface (so I can keep things on the same Y axis) and rename the layer LOWER RIGHT. I’d duplicate the “------------” layer twice and sandwich the new LOWER RIGHT layer with them.
It just makes it easier for myself when revisiting a design to see how I did something, or if people inspect the watchface
I’ll tell you one other thing I think would greatly assist in desiging.
LIBRARIES. If I upload a pic and want to use that same pic on another watch face I have to upload it again. Takes more space on the server and in the case of me, I would like to use several default files for things.
Lastly, along with libraries, if I upload a custom font face, that should be available for ALL faces. Fits in with the library, but I shouldn’t need to upload a custom font to every watch face I want to build!
