Feature request Hi, in LibreOffice Draw: when selecting an object on the canvas, on mouse right click there should be an entry in the context menu "move to layer ..." . I would like to use Draw to make Kanban Charts e.g. for travel planning, where this feature would be useful. With best best regards, Matthias
Set to new. Improves usability. Note: in the meantime, Cut & paste is a workaround.
Although user customization is possible, it seems reasonable to add this function by default to the context menu. The command is .uno:SetLayer which needs to be added to sd/uiconfig/sdraw/popupmenu/draw.xml (ordinary shapes) sd/uiconfig/sdraw/popupmenu/line.xml (lines) and maybe also sd/uiconfig/sdraw/popupmenu/bezier.xml (bezier curves) sd/uiconfig/sdraw/popupmenu/connector.xml (connectors) sd/uiconfig/sdraw/popupmenu/curve.xml (curves) sd/uiconfig/sdraw/popupmenu/measure.xml (measure lines) sd/uiconfig/sdraw/popupmenu/group.xml (grouped objects) sd/uiconfig/sdraw/popupmenu/graphic.xml (images) sd/uiconfig/sdraw/popupmenu/table.xml (tables) Any other context?
(In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #2) > > Any other context? It is shorter to say, which one should _not_ get the ".uno:SetLayer" item: 3dobject.xml -- 3D-objects must be inside a scene, thus its scene needs to be moved 3dscene2.xml -- don't know where it is used annotation.xml -- AFAIK, annotations cannot have a layer other than "Layout". drawtext.xml -- belongs to text edit mode form.xml -- controls are by default on the special "Controls" layer. Only advanced users should move controls. formrichtext.xml -- don't know where it is used gluepoint.xml -- not a shape layertab.xml -- not a shape notebookbar.xml -- not a shape alle page...xml -- not a shape All others need the ".uno:SetLayer" item.
