Improved elements manipulation
It is actually a set of improvement ideas:
Bring in the layers, rulers & guides. It'd be extremely helpful to better organize the elements on the working environment.
Further text capabilities: underline? hyphenation? Currently, the paragraph manipulation is rather limited, compared to (say) Illustrator/inDesign.
For Adobe loyal users (like myself) adapting to a radically new set of shortcuts feels weird, and adds extra difficulty to everyday tasks. 'A' for artboards, ’R’ for rectangles and ‘E’ for ellipses makes sense, if you never-ever used illustrator/photoshop/indesign. ’Tab’ for hiding all panels would also be really handy.
What about blending modes for elements? i’d really appreciate having my beloved “multiply” appearance available.
With the current version, several workarounds are needed to supplement the missing capabilities.
