Select multiple layers by ctrl+clicking them

This would be a useful feature for animation where you need to move certain layers by the same distance on the new frame

Hi @Kiloku, actually you can do something like that using the Move tool when several layers are selected in the Timeline: http://www.aseprite.org/docs/move-tool/#move-multiple-cels

The problem is that I can't select multiple layers that are not adjacent on the list of layers. The only way to select multiple layers (that I know of) is dragging the selection, which forces me to handle all layers in between the ones I want.

This is what I mean (I want to select the "Braco" and "Face" layers, but not any of the others)

Yeah, that's true and that's is why I didn't close the issue 😅 I'm just working in something (#454) that might enable this Ctrl+click behavior to select multiple non-adjacent layers (as layer groups needs new special ways to handle the layer selection).

Ah, got it. Thanks for the info and for the awesome software 😄

Implemented, this will be included in the next v1.2-beta2
