Problem with layers

[vaquemone]

I have problems with layers. The new vesión does not respect the locked layers so I can select anything from a locked layer when I am selecting something on the other normal layer. It worked well in the previous version. I had lost some brushes too.

Hi vaquemone,

Thanks for letting us know - this is a known issue that is with development to be fixed.

With regards to the brushes, we've changed some of the default brushes around. However we have made the existing brushes available should you still want them - please see the link below on how to get them:
