Layers/objects across multiple pages

[Laganama]

Hi there,

in Afpub v.2 there is quite strange behaviour with objects (shapes, images, layers…) while moving them in multi-page ducuments. Strange is, that the layer/object goes to another page when its center is located within that page. In Afpub v.1 the "jump" of any object to another page was defined by the position of the cursor itself. The object could interfere any adjacent page but when the cursor draging it was still at the page 1 for instance, the object stays at the page 1 too. For better illustration I attach short screencast. This is especial bad when moving any picture inside a picture frame located close to the page borders.

I'm pretty sure that this issue has been raised before and it was said to be "by design" (i.e. a deliberate change from v1), rather than a bug.

This has come up before and is due to being able to place things over 2 pages. I've added your report to the issue

This issue complicates the work the most (for me) when I want to have some cutout from a picture inside a picture frame and the location of the cutout is causing, that the center of that image is over the adjacent page. In such scenario the only way to locate the picture in such position and to prevent the jump to another page is translating it using arow keys or manualy by setting thy X and Y position values in transform panel.
