Hi Affinity, When a single layer / object selected then grouped using either Arrange > Group (or the CMD+G shortcut) or Layers panel > Group, the app creates a new, empty group instead of a new group containing the selected layer / object. This requires the user to manually move the previously selected layer / object into the new group. This bug is present in the standalone Photo app, not in the Photo persona within Publisher. It's also present on the Photo iPad app. I'm on a Mac running the latest OS. I'm using Photo 2.0.3. As you can see in the attached video, I performed six tests: A1. a single object selected. Layer > New Group: new empty group created, as expected. B1. a single object selected. Arrange > Group: new empty group created, not as expected. C1. a single object selected. Layers panel > Group: new empty group created, not as expected. A2. two objects selected. Layer > New Group: new empty group created, as expected. B2. two objects selected. Arrange > Group: objects grouped, as expected. C2. two objects selected. Layers panel > Group objects grouped, as expected. This is different from V1 for me. Performing actions B1 and C1 would result in the single object being grouped as expected in the previous version.
