It is difficult to find objects which are behind others
What is:
Sometimes you can hide a object by missing the effect of moving another object over the top of it. When you do notice it is missing you have to move lots of objects through the different layers to find it, or your entire design around.
What should be:
You need a list of all the objects in the mockup. When you can select an object from the list it will be selected on the mockup and you can then move it to the correct layer.

Inappropriate?Hi s3a, I understand your problem because it happens to me too. :-)
Your proposal of a list is good, maybe a bit "heavy" for an easy tool like Mockups. Any other idea from the customers?

Inappropriate?Hi there
I'm dealing with the same problem and I can't see a way too get back to my "lost" object. My first Idea was also a List (or dropdownbox). This would allow to select the "lost" object even if it isn't visible and then edit it and bring it to front in the usual way. This would have another advantage: I often need to insert a link on items which don't support linking. I do that by using a rectangle without border and 100% opacity. This means, I cant select objects below this invisible rectangles. With a dropdownbox including all objects i would be able to select such objects.
If it would be possible to change the layer by changing the order in the list, this would be even better. Either way, I can't see a way without a list or dropdownbox.
If there is a larger number of objects of the same kind, it would be a problem to distinguish the objects. If the list would use the text tiped in the objects (the ones wich can have text) would be helpfull. Else it would be necessary to give each object a name...that, I think, would be outside the range of an "easy tool".
best regards
