Sadly, only on the screen, yet :) Directly after announcing I also added the first tool buttons for better visibility. Just in case, a short introduction for users: Each layer has a type, and each type has its own editor. Bitmap p9images are one type, others aren't implemented yet, but planned. When clicking on one layer, the editor for that layer will "open". That means that input is directed to that editor, and visualizations will be drawn from that editor. Also, the tools panel will open with the controls for this editor. The p9image editor currently only has three buttons, more will follow for brush settings and color palette. Button "C" will change the drawing to display the final composited image (which is the standard), button "S" (solo) will display only the image of that layer, and button "M" will display the mask for that layer (if available). When displaying the mask, you can only draw on the mask. (I want more control over this so you can paint on the mask while displaying the full composited image). The layers window currently has a weird ordering, because it's from top to bottom. That will change to the standard well-known stack (from bottom to top) in the future. Also, I want to include some micro-toolbar into the layers window for the editor to fill, so the buttons that are in the standard tool right now will probably be there at some point. In general, there are a few points that are more important right now: - zooming is slow. That should be improved. - saving is not yet possible, but is important, obviously. - adding and moving layers, as well as deleting. sirjofri
