Is it possible to copy an object from a group that is not seen as a daughter of that group? What I mean is can the copied object have its own layer?

If voting made any difference it wouldn't be allowed!

Yes I know but when I select the copy of the object it shows it as still being part of its original group i.e. it is included in its original group's envelope. I want it to separated from its original group.

That's because you pasted it inside the group. You would have to either select a layer that's higher up in the hierarchy or click off the canvas to deselect everything and paste. this will place it on the top of your layer stack.

Thanks.

I have this habit of selecting and dragging objects from groups for them to stand alone but always had this problem. By copying and pasting outside the group then I have an independent object.
