Layers struggling


Recommended Posts

AD 1.7.0.12 is struggling with layers panel. Layers are slow in showing/hiding and they can't be renamed. After double-clicking the layer name changes to edit mode but cancel the editation immediately and automatically. I can't insert custom name.

Maybe try updating AD to 1.7.0.14

With 1.7.0.14 the same behaviour. Even completely other layer are showed/hiden than sellected/ticked.

I have found the problem. Something like layer has been parented to one of my text frames. Looks like anchored object? (see the attachment) I can't find any reference for such a symbol in AD manual. After deleting it everything works well.

I try to play with it a bit, and anchoring itself works great, I haven't known about such a feature in AD. The problem causes just pasting an empty layer into the text: create empty layer, copy it, insert the cursor into the text and paste the empty layer inside. Even if I create layer with some object and copy it, than paste it into the text to anchor them, everything works good. The problem is indeed just anchoring the empty layer.
