Hi,

I'm trying the new 4.5beta version with existing tours. The skin-editor had a major change and it looks better than the previous version.
But one thing I noticed and find very annoying is that when loading an old skin all items in the list are reversed. I use a lot of menu-listings
that I have to reverse back to make it readable again. Is this done by design or a bug ?

regards,

Hi Arjan,
The file tree in the old skin was set out so the lower the element the more forward it was in the output.
Other software such as Photoshop is reverse, so as we seemed to be the only software with this we changed it so now the higher the element the more forward.

When loading a skin made in 4.1 in 4.5 it reorders the file tree so elements that were intended to be more forward stay more forward.
Regards,
Hopki

Please return to the right side panel elements/layers, or the ability to be custom reorganize panels.
After many years of work in Photoshop and other programs, I can`t get used to the fact that the elements/layer panel is on the left.
For me mechanically mouse find to right. I can `t work with the new user interface without hysterical

Ok, I understand, maybe an idea to make it possible to have a menu item in the skin-editor to reverse the order of the items selected.
When making buttons in a menu, the order does not matter. Reversing all my previously made skins to make it readable again when editing
is very very time consuming.

Or, like hum@no.id mentioned above, make an advanced setting to go back to the old layout and item order ?

Arjan

PS: I noticed a bug (I think it is) in the skin-editer. When trying to change the "Tour node/tag" of a "Node Marker", it doesn't change it ...
