Object Explorer in Freedom UI page designer

It would be nice to have something like Object Explorer in page designer. If you have a lot of containers, fields, details, it is very difficult to move or add field to the needed place.

So, we have to open source code and change index if we want to change places or change parent name if we want to locate item to another container.

If we could select container in Explorer, not only on the page, it could make design much faster. 

Besides, it could allow to manage more parameters of item - like parent, index and other 

 

Thank you!

Absolutely yes! It's very difficult to determine or select the container an element is in. I wish there was a way to click an element on the page and then in the properties pane get to the parent container it is in. As it is now, you have to play a game with your mouse hovering over everything hoping to get the parent container, but you can't tell if it's the parent container of the element, or that container's parent since an element can, and often is, nested within a hierarchy of several containers. There needs to be a better way to select or navigate things on the page without just trying to get lucky by hovering and clicking things.
