Steps to reproduce: Create a new document Draw 2 or more picture frames Open the Layers panel Try to change the frame's stacking order Expected result is for the frame's stacking order to change, instead the moved frame will nest within the frame immediately below its new stacking order position. See attached video for a visual explanation. Bonus bug: if I actually want to nest the frames, I cannot trigger it intentionally. Trying to place a frame within another in the Layers panel never triggers the "filled layer" visual effect that indicates an object will be nested within another. This bug is, to the best of my knowledge, limited to picture frames, square and round. Other objects are unaffected and behave normally. Temporary workaround, use the layer arrange commands. Either on the application menu at Layer > Arrange (and their respective keyboard shortcuts), or the layer arrange buttons on the application toolbar. Both are imune to this bug. Thanks!

Whenever I drag a layer onto a picture frame from the layer panel, the highlight just flickers and the dragged layer just jumps in and out of the frame. When I move my cursor to the left or right a little bit, the highlight even flicks faster. So I only have 50% chance to successfully put a layer inside the frame.

I found this strange behaviour. EDIT: this also applies to Beta 2.1.1.1847 I want to change the layer order in the layers panel. The three other picture frames (sibblings) get deleted randomly during dragdrop as well as after droping the draged layer at the new position in the stack. All bitmaps are linked. 2023-06-14_bug_publisher-2.1.0_picture-frame-dragdrop_001.mp4 The only way to get the the layer to the target position without errors is by using the menu ordering commands (or keyboard shortcuts): It seems that, allthough the insertion position is marked BETWEEN the other picture frames, the draged picture frame is droped INTO the hovered/targeted picture frame and replaces its contents. Additionally the draged picture frame looses its content randomly.
