SU Tags Panel v LO Layers Panel - Focus behavior

SketchUp Feature Requests
1

I would like consideration given to the “focus” behavior of SU Tags panel v. LO Layers panel. I find the SU Tags panel a little frustrating especially in light of LO Layers panel behaving more as I would expect.

Specifically, for LO Layers panel:

  1. When Focus is on drawing element
  2. on View/Hide eyeball, focus stays on drawing element
  3. again on View/Hide eyeball, focus stays on drawing element
    All good

For SU Tags panel:

  1. When Focus is on model element
  2. on View/Hide eyeball, focus stays on model element
  3. again on View/Hide eyeball, focus goes to Tag Name (frustrating)
  4. Then on model window to return focus to model
    Would like to see consistency with LO.

Once last graphic thought:
Could the column placement for the View/Hide eyeball be in the same ordinal location for SU and LO?
The more consistency between the two programs the easier for us users.

Thanks and Best.

Yes, I agree some behavior of Tag panel in SU is frustrating. specifically: If I toggle visibility off, and then on again for a tag, the panel decides I want to rename the tag. this has resulted in many accidental tag name changes in my models. very frustrating and destructive to model organisation
