extension i made for personal use but feel free to try it out yourself

what does it do?

 adds 6 new hotkeys to aseprite
Go to Next Layer with same Group - scrolls up the layer stack looping through the current group, skipping the actual group layer


Go to Previous Layer with same Group - same as above but in opposite direction


Go to Next Layer or Group -  same as normal aseprite's behavior, except it collapses groups as you leave them and skips group layers


Go to Previous Layer or Group - same as above but in reverse


Go to Next Group - scrolls to the next group in the stack

Go to Previous Group - same as above but in reverse

 i like the work flow of using aseprites built in Go to Next/Previous Frame Same Tag hotkeys, and thought it might work well for groups and layers.

if you find this useful or have any suggestions feel free to leave a comment. this is the first thing i've ever programmed in lua so if you spot any bugs or have any suggestions for improving the code let me know.
