    Question Possible Layer Gallery Glitch

    The last several files (5-10 since installing the Xpro4CD) Files worked having multiple layers. I've not been able to delete the extra layers unless, after a save, closing & re-opening the file again then able to delete extra layers.

    This is happening constantly for me at the end of the design process. Once I complete the sep layers I'll delete any junk layers. This is when I notice the problem & have to reload the file.

    When selecting a layer & clicking the delete button in the layer gallery, nothing happens.

    Can some of ya'll check this for me? Set up a template that has multiple layers, so that when you open a new file there are 3-4 layers with items on them. You may have to work the file a bit. In my default template, the extra layer are all blank except for crop marks & CMYK text.

    I'm using Windows XP & Xara X4pro cd install.

    I've been having the problem since installing Xpro4 from the CD.

    Happens all the time for me, so it's more of an annoyance than anything else when working in Xara (which is 90% of my work).

    It's not a deal breaker by any means, but it should get patched eventually.

    wW have you checked your default template for those extra layers?

    Is it possible that you saved your default with some layers you had forgotten about?

    Ok, I've just gotten one of these "undeletable" layers.

    Open the Layer properties for the layer and make sure the Editable box is checked. Even though I had the layer selected in the Layer gallery and the option "Current Layer is Always Visible & Editable" is turned on, somehow the Visible and Editable boxes got unchecked as far as the properties dialog is concerned.

    As soon as I marked the layer Editable in the properties, I was able to delete it.

    HTH,
    Allison
