Will be great to have an option for default canvas stacking order for Auto Layout for each Design File.


We provide a lot of tooltips in our products.

And use Auto Layout in a lot of places.


One of the most common questions I get from my team is:

“How do I get tthis expanded thingy] to show on top of fthat other item visually below it]?”


With default Canvas stacking order as “Last on top” - every single time we apply Auto Layout, we’d need to remember to double-check stacking or, or manually update for every single Auto Layout.


As a design creation tool, I believe there is no single absolute right or wrong logic.


What can be good is the flexibility for users to customize the options that work for them.


A default option applied to each design file will help tremendously.
