chile9 Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 I'm having an issue that I'm not really sure is an issue or if I'm just missing something. I'm an organization freak. I like to group my various elements (curves, shapes, etc.) to keep them easy to find. The issue I'm having is, I place my newest curve in a group that I want my next few elements to live in, but then when I create the next curve, it NEVER places it inside of the group that I just created, ALWAYS outside of it. I want them to automatically place them in the group I just created, right above the last element that I made, similar to the way that PS and AI do. Otherwise it makes things more difficult and time-consuming to organize. Is there a setting that I'm missing or is that just an oversight in the app?

walt.farrell Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Make sure that you have a curve inside the Group selected, not the Group itself. The next curve you create should go above that selected curve.

jmwellborn Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 @chile9 You say "I place my newest curve in a group that I want my next few elements to live in..." If you mean that you are starting a new group, then you need at least one curve or shape layer which will appear at the top of your layers stack. You can then group that single layer, and it will show as the first layer in the new group. If you will then open either the new group or an existing group in which you have your curves, shapes, etc. and create a new curve or shape, it will appear at the top of the layer stack in the same group. If you close the group and then create a new curve or shape, it will appear outside the group. The trick is to be sure that the appropriate (Group) layer is opened. Top example is Designer.
