a very bad-as experience

I wanted to rename some layers so selecting the layers using my mouse button moved the artboard i have to click outside the artboard and then select again but press ctrl button to select layers, missed a layer? now press shift to select a layer and pressing ctrl removes selection, dont worry pressing Ctrl+z might restore selected layers but no repeat all again. Ok now i made a group and wanted to rename it. Guess what i cant rename the group. The most retarted menu opens with no option to rename. I tapped the hell out of my left click but no i was not able to rename any group. I added bones to my groups and i tried to copy the group with bones and guess what? only bones were copied. The hell im supposed to do with bones? I have used adobe photoshop, illustrator, figma, xd, but this is some next level experience. thumbs up for whoever was in charge of this.

Hello, ! I'm sorry to hear your experiencing trouble while trying to rename your layers. Have you watched the Rive 101 lessons on navigation and selection? I think this will be very helpful to you.
You can also use the hierarchy to better navigate along your layers. Just double click any layer name directly in the hierarchy to rename it.
If you have any suggestions on how to make this process more intuitive, feel free to add a feature request here: https://rive.app/community/forums/feature-requests/fsyCzA4A9Yar
