If that doesn't make sense I can do some screen shots ... just LMK.
I know that I *could* do it that way (or with a text file while scrapping), but I'm just not wired that way. I know I'd forget to add the info for a few of the things I add. Plus, I'd end up with a list of everything I added to the LO (assuming that I remembered to add them all), but not necessarily everything that ended up in the LO since I tend to put a lot of things on the canvas that I end up deleting before the LO is finished. Having the layers named with the file name, I can just scan the visible layers after I'm done with the LO and see what I used.
