Publisher 2.1.0: drag drop picture frames in layers panel deletes other picture frames/contents


Recommended Posts

I found this strange behaviour.

EDIT: this also applies to Beta 2.1.1.1847

I want to change the layer order in the layers panel. The three other picture frames (sibblings) get deleted randomly during dragdrop as well as after droping the draged layer at the new position in the stack. All bitmaps are linked.

The only way to get the the layer to the target position without errors is by using the menu ordering commands (or keyboard shortcuts):

It seems that, allthough the insertion position is marked BETWEEN the other picture frames, the draged picture frame is droped INTO the hovered/targeted picture frame and replaces its contents. Additionally the draged picture frame looses its content randomly.

Here is a simplified test file with embeded bitmaps:

Hi @4dimage,

Looks like this is caused by an existing issue with the layers panel hit area not working correctly when drag and dropping objects between picture frames that are next to one-another in the layer stack, I've now added the details of your report and bumped the issue. 🙂
