Hi everyone, In light of the new ADA Title II regulations, many state and local governments — and the vendors who work with them — need their digital documents to meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA by April 24, 2026 (or 2027 for smaller jurisdictions).

This would enable a more streamlined workflow that I've become familiar with from using other applications combined with MS Windows' built-in windows management system. Note: I'm aware of the article at…

Cycle layers command
I would like to be able to use the cycle layer functions that are currently locked to the surface dial hardware. It seems that since this functionality already exists, it would be trivial to add commands that allow these functions to be bound to other shortcut keys. It seems odd that this is locked to a particular bit of…
