Hey John. Thank you for making this absolutely incredible juggernaut of a drawing tool and image manipulator. I love it and can't live without it.

I've tried to do some frame animation, but there seems to be some issues with dealing with multiple layers at once (we are talking hundreds of frames/layers). I am wondering:
1. In frame animation: Is it possible to select multiple layers? If so: How would I accomplish this? I've tried Click-dragging, ctrl-clicking and shift-arrow keys. All the usual suspects. It refuses to select anything but the single, current layer. Hence the follow doesn't seem possible either:
2. In frame animation. Is it possible to group multiple layers? The grouping option under 'Layer -> Layer Group' appears grayed out; disabled.
3. In frame animation: If I wished to duplicate a large set of layers (for the sake of argument, let's say 500 frames/layers), but neither of the above two options are possible, which option(s) would be the best way to accomplish my goal, in your opinion? Do you have any tips or recommendations for achieving my goal?

Thanks again!
