Designer version 2.5.7  iPad air 5th generation  Ipados 18.2.1

Lately I have a problem in opening documents from the ‘Live docs’ screen. In opening a document from there the layers panel shows just one layer called “Background”, without showing the multiple layers I need. When I open the document from iCloud drive, Affinity designer I get a preview image, which is also new to me, with a link to “Open in Designer 2”. In doing so I get the document with all the layers. I use this detour now but it takes extra time. Hopefully there is a solution.

It sounds like your file in Live Docs may have been flattened by some operation you performed, which the History panel might show. Or, possibly, it is not Opened originally from the same document you're now using in your iCloud Drive.

Some screenshots may be useful.

Thank you walt.farrel 

 

I couldn't find it in the history panel. On the other hand i duplicated this and other files to try out things. Perhaps these files got mixed up. 
The screenshots show what I posted before. 
I tried to reproduce the error but I couldn’t, so probably you are right. Thanks a lot.
