Layers keep jumping up.


Recommended Posts

I am having this strange issue.

In designer I have both vector and pixel layers.
I draw a vector shape and move it under my pixel layer.
If I select the shape to  move it it will jump back to the top?
I can move it back down but it will not stay under the pixel layer.

Also seem's to be acting like a mask.

Hi @Albo,
Welcome to Affinity Forums :)
This is by design. You are moving an object/layer to outside the Artboard layer (plan de travail) in the Layers panel, however on the canvas that object still remains over ("belongs to") the Artboard. If you move/edit it a little on canvas it's corresponding layer moves automatically back to inside the respective Artboard layer. Same happens if you move an object on canvas from one artboard to another - its layer will also move from the original artboard layer where it was to the new artboard layer in the Layers panel.

If 'Plan de travail' translates to Artboard then what is happening is the Corbe layer is being taken out of an artboard and placed in a non-artboard space with x y co-ordinates that make it appear to be in/on the Plan de Travail1 then when it is selected and moved a bit it is thinking to itself "I am being placed on an artboard" and leaping into it.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.
