    Default Re: Items not showing in Page & Layout gallery

    Thanks for the replies and examples.
    If the layer I'm working on IS expanded in the P&LG, I really would expect to see the group highlighted in the gallery when clicking the group on the page... another little xara quirk but at least there's an easy solution.
    Thanks LGF

    It does seem contrary to other grouped objects' behaviours.

    IF you happen to have the P&LG open in Layer mode
    AND you have the Layer with the Repeating Object expanded
    AND the Repeating Object itself is expanded
    WHEN you select the Repeating Object in the design
    THEN the P&LG will be highlighted

    This is the exact same behaviour in v15 and if it is not a Repeating Object.
    If the Layer is not expanded, no amount of selecting will produce a highlight.

    It only happens when the Locate button is depressed.

    v10 highlights the Repeating Group and not the object so perhaps this is what you have had experience of previously?

    Thanks for the response, Acorn. You planted a seed of doubt in my mind, so I went to version 12 to check. Selecting an object would still highlight the repeating group in the P&L gallery. (See image.) I went on to check the next version, v15, and indeed, it had changed to how it behaves now.
    I can only assume that I created the last version of my site with v12, so I didn’t see the change until I began working earlier this year on v17.
    Cheers.
