    Default Multiple layers added from one click

    (PGD365/Win10)

    This keeps happening after my laptop is awaken from hibernation.

    A varying number of extra layers are added following a single click to the 'add layer' button in the Page & Layer gallery.

    In the attached screenshot example an extra 21 layers were added. Normally it's about 4. It's a royal pain in the derrière because although you can undo, you can only undo one layer at a time. Obviously the work around is to close PGD between sessions, but...

    first thing I would do is try another mouse [even if you are not experiencing issues elsewhere] - the list of things that can go a bit skewy when returning from hibernation is long, and the causes could be anything from BIOS bugs to out of date drivers....

    Thank you Behzad for confirming after all this time it’s not just me this happens to. Fingers crossed the latest update fixes this highly annoying bug.

    Rob

    all I have to do for this to occur is to open a new document in xara and click on the new layer button with the cintiq pen [cintiq pro 24 / pro pen 2] - does not happen with mouse

    the multiple layers are still there when I reopen the xar file, but with xdpx15.1 at least the gallery has sometimes upinned itself and sometimes as a result it floats

    here is a file:
