    Hi, a quick question regarding the Layer Sort Order.

    Is there a plug-in allow one to control the sort order of Layers?

    Please note: I do understand that the Layer Panel built-in to SU allows you to do this but that is for display in SU only.

    For example, if I create the layers B, C and A in that order - the Layer Panel will sort them alphabetically (A, B and C).

    However, when I import the SKP file in my application the Layers will get imported in the order of creation (B, C and A).

    As a workaround I edit the file in SU in this order:
    Cut group/items in A Layer and Paste it back in.
    Cut group/items in B Layer and Paste it back in.
    Cut group/items in C Layer and Paste it back in.

    It's a lot of work, especially if one has a lot of SKP files and lots of Layers.

    In my application, it's necessary for the Layers to appear in Order as each Layer is associated with a color and when the order is random then they will appear confusing in my interface.

    Thanks!
