Hi All,

Just noticed recently there has been a change to the move layer function… Previously, you could hit m 3, and it would move the selected objects to layer three… Now, there is an ‘OK’ button which you have to hit to move the object (or press enter)…

Just wondering if there is a user preference or a way to revert back to the old way of moving, as it is now slows down my workflow quite a bit.

Cheers

Carlo

Moved from “General Forums \> Blender and CG Discussions” to “Support \> Basics & Interface”

I noticed this too… and no, I don’t like it, either. But no, there’s no way to revert it without digging into the code, as far as I can tell.

LIttle update: I brought this up in IRC and it ultimately ended up in [Brecht reverting the change](http://lists.blender.org/pipermail/bf-blender-cvs/2012-November/051784.html). So now we have the old workflow back. Hooray!
