New shortcut to activate the last active layer

[overflorian]

Hi,
I suggest to create a new keyboard shortcut that would:

• activate the last active layer
• deactivate the current active layer

This is a simple shortcut to avoid to click the very tiny button to activate a layer.

I know that it's already possible to active layers via shortcuts, but it's all very complex: first you press the "change the active layer" and then press the "number of the layer", witch is 2 steps.

My solution would allow to swap from 1 layer to the previously active with only 1 step.
This would save a lot of time while changing very often from 1 layer to another.

I suggest to use "MAJ+Z" as a shortcut. ("CTRL+Z" is undo, and this new action would go to the previous active layer so it makes sense).
Thanks in advance for your time.

This probably doesn't completely fulfill what you want, but there is a shortcut to cycle through layers.

shift+[ to cycle down the list
shift+] to cycle up the list

Note: { and [ share the same key and } and ] share the same key, so you are technically typing the curly brace instead of the square bracket.

Does already exist (Shift+A+[1–0A-Z]), see wiki:/Help/Dialog/LayerList#ActivateLayer.
