Ivan_M Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Designer 1.8.0.585, Win 10 Then I locked one layer and work with unlocked objects on the other layers I can frequently select objects in locked layer as well. It happens then I use marquee selection with Move Tool. Sometimes, then I try to drag them, selection disappears but sometimes I can effectively change position of locked objects. This issue is completely sporadic and never appears on earlier versions. I can easily reproduce this issue by frequently making marquee selection(in new, clear document). Situation strongly resembles this topic in Beta forum. predick 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Sean P Posted March 6, 2020 Staff Share Posted March 6, 2020 Hi Ivan_M, Thanks for letting us know - it appears to happen when the first object touched by the marquee is in the locked layer. Could you confirm that is what happens in the cases that you can reproduce? If a non-locked layer/object is hit first then it ignores the locked layer. If your steps are different would you be able to list them, along with a video if possible please? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I create a simple document with two piles of objects on right and left side of the artboard and start making marquee selection from left and right. Sometimes it can work without issues for minutes, but overall, in my case I guess changing locks on layers accelerate appearance of the issue. selection.mp4 predick 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
