The ability to add meaningful descriptions or labels to layers lets users know at a glance what part of the design they're editing, and improves overall organization and editability within the design tool.
@FiorenzoWe already have masking, so do you mean a different sort or a different way of handling what we have? I'd love a way similar to the way it's done in video via the way in which images are layered.
I meant to read also naming of grouped elements, so I added also the masks to the wishlist. Actually, you have no clue what a group of elements contains, so labeling the group would be nice. Masks built with the masking tool by combining 2 elements are even worse. You have no clue what that group is, and if you unmask (if you know you can), you can't simply group or mask again, and people who don't know how masks work, will end up with a messed-up mask. So labeling masking/masked elements would be helpful, e.g. "Heart-shaped photo" instead of the actual generic "Group".
We used to be able to rename layers when we had the ability to transfer designs from Photoshop to Zazzle. The renaming was done in Photoshop before sending the file over.
For organizing a listing it would be very helpful to have that not just for the creator but for the customer as well. I have designs that can be fully recolored in 5 minutes but would take ‘a customer new to the layers panel’ much longer to figure out where everything is to the point of becoming frustrated and abandoning the product listing altogether. Thanks 🙂
