--- Comment #4 from Ahab Greybeard <ahab.greybe...@hotmail.co.uk> ---
At the moment, the lightbulb icon is used to indicate that a layer is animated
and it is not present if a layer is not animated. It is grey or black+lit to
show if onion skins are off or on.
This does not intrude for someone who isn't doing animations.
It does not indicate whether the layer is shown in the Timeline or not.
If the lightbulb icon in the layers docker could be altered to indicate that
the layer was in the Timeline (or not), that would be useful. Maybe a cross
placed over it to indicate that it's not in the Timeline?
The Timeline docker controls for adding a layer are quite good but removing a
layer from the Timeline is clunky and the 'Remove layer' option does in fact
delete the layer from the image. https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=407416
With many animated layers, it's important that the user has full and detailed
control over which layers are shown in the Timeline and that can be done at the
moment (but with clunky layer removal controls).
As an extra issue, an animated transparency mask does not have a lightbulb
icon. You can't have an animated transparency mask unless its parent layer is
animated but you can have an animated transparency mask alone in the Timeline
(with no lightbulb icon displayed).
I deal with this by giving them a name "Animask 'parent name'" so I know what's
happening.
