visually group layers in resolume together

Post by Grimm90 »

Now thats a good example !

Another request , instead of starting a new topic ill just drop it here ..

A way to visually group layers in resolume together , while leaving them in their order in the stack.

I often work with a lot of layers , renders , images , clips , fx layers you name it it's in there.
Most of the time i only need to actively "see" about 1/3th of my layers, these are my clip layers , my stage renders , my 50mask "flash" layer , the important stuff , but they are scattered in various places in layer order of my comp.

So to keep my vital info together and not have to scroll all the time, i bring these layers together to make layers 1 - 8 , bypass certaub layers and i will use new layers in the right place + routers to pipe the video into the right place in my comp. This way i can focus on my content and not have to browse through all the whistles and bells layers that make my complex comps :s .

This does complicates my comp, uses resources, but it's the only way i found to keep things manageable with 20 - 30 layers :s

An option like "lock this layer order" , while making it dragable to where you want to layer could maybe be a way ( with a different color trick then to indiciate its in another place in the layer order)
