Judith,

*Very* nice!  Particularly like how it now shows in splash screen, (as per
suggestion), that you are the driving architect of the mod  ;)  You deserve
a LOT of credit for you've done to/for the IDE!

things I noticed re layers:
1. just for "spiffy"ness, could you make right-click on a layer tab make
that layer the background layer (& maybe work as a toggle, so another
right-click de-selects it as background?) ?  that'd be handy.
2.  moving a control on a secondary layer makes the background layer no
longer show.
3.  if user selected "Show Multiple Layers", moving from one layer to
another should retain that selection, but it doesn't now. (maybe make the
option in popup menu a "checked off" choice, so user could specify to stop
showing multiple layers by clicking again to uncheck it, instead of auto
un-show multiple when change layer or move control?)( & if you implement top
suggestion, "layer tab right-click selects/deselects background", that'd
have to sometimes alter the check condition, too).
4.  maybe even a caption in "Form Design", "Background Layer n, Active Layer
m", when relevant
(maybe active layer text isn't totally necessary, as tab shows that, but
background layer indication might be useful).
5.  in "Pick Background Layer", maybe 0 pre-selected as default?
(& egg in beer, too?  :)  )

That's all I notice for now, keep up the good work :)
