Editing Display Order numerically rather than visually

Anonymous
Not applicable
I find i use drawing order alot to achieve required drawing appearances (layering of elements). There seems to be 14 'levels' available.

It would be really useful if:
1) you could see )in the dialog box or context menu for example) what level an element is on,
2) be able to change it's level by typing in a number (rather than the bring forward/move back shuffle) and
3) set an elements default level so that when you place it (especially multiple objects) they are placed at the required level.

If anyone knows if this is currently possible i'd like to hear about it, otherwise will put it on the wish list and wait

Rude person, if you really knew how to use these features you wouldn't be asking your question.

I hope you are banned from the forum until you learn some manners.
