szaleq Posted March 29, 2020 Posted March 29, 2020 (edited) Just found another bug while playing around with Designer. When you click on the layer in "Layers" panel it gets selected. When you click on a layer while holding shift down it's visibility is changed. Expected behavior: If you select one layer and click on another one while holding shift it should select all the layers between the two (including the first selected layer and the last clicked one). What happens: The selection works as expected, but the layer clicked with shift turns invisible (visibility switching shouldn't work while selecting multiple layers). It works this way only if you click on layer thumbnail (clicking on layer name doesn't switch the visibility) but IMO should be consistent. Edited March 29, 2020 by szaleq Quote
walt.farrell Posted March 29, 2020 Posted March 29, 2020 It's not related to selecting multiple layers. Even with only one layer selected, shift-clicking on its thumbnail unchecks the visibility box on the layer. I have no idea whether that's intended behavior, but it seems to be undocumented.

But I think it's actually OK while you are clicking on a single layer (the visibility checkbox is smaller and futher away from the document itselt, so it's quiet convenient for me). But even if it's intended behavior it should not work while selecting multiple layers. Quote
Staff Sean P Posted March 30, 2020 Staff Posted March 30, 2020 Hi szaleq, I've just tried this myself and have not been able to reproduce this - the layers are remaining visible. Is there anything I'm doing differently? Are you shift clicking on a text object? There is a known issue with this behaviour when clicking on text however. ShiftCtrlSelection.mp4 Quote
szaleq Posted March 30, 2020 Author Posted March 30, 2020 Well, just this morning I noticed that this doesn't happen on my desktop PC. But it does on my laptop which I was using during the weekend. I'll make a recording of the issue on the laptop this evening. Quote
