| Sep 30, 2014 at 14:30 | comment | added | Don | @Joonas Doco does look rich with features and really nice. but as I know myself, in the long run it'll personally bother me to have it opened, I might try it though, thanks for referencing it! thanks to you I actually looked into extensions in the first place. Anyhow I will certainly share my extension for free at least as a temporary solution for anyone who needs it. I'll look into publishing it in a bit :) | |

Many versions later, it's still not a thing. --- I did have actions and scripts to handle stuff like that, but I fell in love with that big and bulky interface that Doco has :) --- I'd highly recommend that you answer the questions yourself, since you have a solution. It's good for you, good for the site and good for anyone bumping into this same issue. | |
| Sep 30, 2014 at 13:13 | comment | added | Don | @Joonas I see, well that seems to work, but I probably wouldn't find use of it as it's quite big, bulky and I don't like big interfaces covering the most of my screen when I work. I usually hide them all, so I made my own extension that does what I wanted, simply duplicating layers to other tabs in a single click. Sad that Adobe couldn't handle this themselves.. I'll share with you guys if anyone's interested. | |

It's worth noting that it doesn't really bring anything to the table that isn't somehow already available in Photoshop. | |

| Sep 28, 2014 at 12:37 | comment | added | Don | I'm surprised I missed this feature, thank you for this! but I would still love to know if it's possible via drag and drop as I think it's way more convenient. besides, it looks silly that ctrl + tab decides not to work when dragging layers, why break the possibly most intuitive way to do this? | |
| Sep 28, 2014 at 11:28 | comment | added | MoritzLost | Do you have to use drag and drop? You could simple right-click the layer -> duplicate layer, the pop-up window gives you the option to select where the duplicated layer should go ... | |
