Often when doing complicated work it happens that we (i do anyway) end up with many layers...
And sometimes it can get tricky and complicated juggling between them...whilst also tracing raster art for example and perhaps also needing to see how much work has been done on another layer (so as not to double up, when switching this layer on can obscure what your looking at also)....
So to make working with layers easier i would like to see a new icon in the layer palette (perhaps on the Right hand side) that would be like a "ghost preview".
That is that you could apply this ghost mode to any layer and what it would do would be take the outlines only for all the objects on this layer and have them always superimposed on top with a ghost water mark type effect....
I think this would be very handy whist working with layers... as you could work on one layer and have other layers previewed but not interfereing with your current work....
Also i think if you previewed more than one layer in this way each layer would be previewed in a different colour.....
i.E this preview would not display any of the colours of the actual outlines of the objects on the layers that were being previewed but would just be a ghost representation to show where objects on this layer were situated...
having the ability to preview other layers whilst working on another...
