I'm unsure about the name for such a thing, what I had in mind is:Here's one thing that I've long wanted:Relative Layer Positioning
- Often, I don't care much about exact positioning of a layer in the canvas.
- I care more about where it lies with respect to another layer.
- I care that one line of text is on the same level as another.
- I would like one ellipse exactly at the same level as another.
- I want to align all the elements of the footer in my poster.
- I want to decide whether this layer I want to move should be horizontally aligned or vertically aligned with the adjacent layer.
I'm sure I could think of a few other use cases, but this I think is roughly it.The feature is quite evidently not new. We've all used it in many apps.
I just thought I'd put my need out there.--On Thu, Feb 28, 2013 at 9:26 PM, peter sikking <peter mmiworks net> wrote:

it would not be bad if some more ideas popped up.
