Add layer using URL #35

Open aliuk2012 opened 9 years ago

Currently there is only an option to Add a layer using a local file.

The same functionality needs to added to the "Add Layer" under the existing layer.

I also thought of that option, but I assume the most common action will be to use a local file as layer. Therefore I believe to avoid having to click twice in that case the button should be turned into a split button. By that clicking the button would allow to add a file from the local file system like now and the arrow would offer an option to add a layer via a URL.

My gut feeling is that the URL option will not be used that often. In my experience most devs will have a local file/comp that was exported from a design app (photoshop, etc).

I would vote for moving the 'Add Layer' button to the top of the layer list and turning it into a + icon.
