As the number of layers increases in a complex image, it's useful to be able to group them somehow into "folders". This feels complicated to implement. Maybe a good first step is to re-do the Layer window to use a BOutlineListView?

Layer groups need to be:

  • expandable/collapsible
  • disabled/enabled as a group
  • movable as a group
  • deletable as a group
  • layers can be dragged into and out of groups
  • does a layer group get its own blend mode??
  • stretch goal, if this isn't enough - layer group drag-n-drop between ArtPaint files.

Not much to add, but

  • duplicatable as a group
  • having a thumbnail of the combined contained layers

Groups having their own blend mode sounds like a good idea.
