To me this is just another unhappy UX decision: To navigate the sidebar by arrow keys. its a common action for me (and i cant be the only one) to select a layer in the left side menu, and then try to move the elements position in the canvas trhough the arrow keys. Cant do that anymore, now its a nightmare, all it does is it just navigates the lef side menu. now why would i want to do that?? cant select the layer directly in the canvas because its behind another layer. i'm stuck like for the past 10 minutes trying to figure it out. please remove that feature, so frustrating. im getting tired of these horrible UX decisions.

Hi entroid,

Just a quick reminder the best way to pass on suggestions and feedback is through the Provide Feedback link in the app.
This will take you to their UserVoice page where you can make suggestions to help improve the app.

Hi, I just wonder if you are using MacOS? Because on Windows there is no way to navigate through layers by the arrow keys.

It's happening to me on windows.

If it's not a desired feature, then it is a bug. I'm attaching a gif with the issue. Should I post it somewhere else?

Do you happen by any chance to have your accessibility controls turned on? This looks like it's moving from control to control, which is not the default behavior.


I'm not sure about that. how can i check it? is that related to the windows UWP standards? it started to happen only recently, probably with the last XD update
