This feature provides an organised and intuitive way to manage and navigate elements within a view. Displayed in a hierarchical tree structure, it allows you to easily reorder elements and access additional functionality through context menus
Element listing represents the list of elements from a view in a tree structure. The list also represents the ordering of the elements. For the complex interaction where it uses groups feature, you can easily navigate through elements and their location from elements list.
On the right side you can see example of a complex list with groups and sub-groups.
Ordering
The elements list is ordered from highest most element to lowest element. So for example you would assume that your background elements would be at the the bottom. You can change the order of the elements simply by dragging them.
For instance, consider a scenario where there are three shape elements in the list, which initially appears in the following order:

In the image above, shape 3 is the top element and shape 1 is the last element. You can change the ordering by moving elements in list like below:

The element listing feature offers a streamlined approach to navigating, organising, and managing elements within a view by presenting them in a structured tree format. This functionality facilitates effortless reordering of elements, provides quick access to context menus, and enables users to toggle element visibility with ease. Additionally, features such as menu access for individual elements and the ability to disable reports enhance the design workflow, making the element listing an invaluable tool for effectively managing complex interactions.
