I'm going to need this functionality very soon. I'll probably just modify the GLF to add the needed removeLayer method and fuctionality in the Composite classes (as well as adding functionality of Layer shuffling and visibility)
But one thing you can do without modifying the GLF is to use the setLayers method (i think that's what it's called). It takes a array of Layers so you can keep a seperate model of all your layers in a custom class and retrive them as an array to use with the setLayers(Layer[]) method.

Hi,
I just started reading on java2d and glf (Graphics Layered Framework).
I am very keen on learning glf, I hope to achieve layered graphics like those in Photoshop drawing. What I wanted is to draw each Shape in seperate Layer, and modify a particular Layer and redraw that modified Layer WITHOUT redrawing the whole canvas. Can I do this with glf?
I tried a few example from sun.com, I cannot find a method Layer.remove(Layer). Or there is another way doing this?
I used to keep all Shape drawn in a Vector and later search for the Shape I want to modify, modify it and draw the whole Vector on Canvas again. Yes, it is very slow.
What is a better way of doing this? Please advice.
