Hi,

I recently created some xaml files with the title designer. I use a lot of text and photo layers per xaml file and found it not really intuitive and clunky. A few small updates would make it a lot more user friendly:

- Layers: yes, there is the ZIndes number, but it's inconvenient to use especially since it doesn't work with texts and images combined). Add some arrows and/or the ability to drag and drop the texts/images where the dropdown menu is right now and it would help a lot (especially if you want to use Data Sources and the auto mode with "apply to all fields in this title" afterwards, since it fills the content according to the ZIndex number

- ability to mark more than one item: it's a pain in the ass to change the location of multiple items. please add the option to mark multiple items to copy, move, etc them at the same time

- back button: it happened sometimes that I changed or move an item by mistake and just wanted to set it back to the previous position, but unfortunately there is no "back" button


I would of course love to see more functions added, with the use of image sequences, in and out points and stuff like that, but you already said that it's just a simple title designer and not meant for professional animated graphics, but those 3 features would make the use of the simple title designer a lot easier.

Update: one more thing: XY moving while holding Shift button
