Actually, the deleted layer is still selected. 3) Now MAX_LAYER is 16 but there are only 8 LAYERCOLOR and LAYERSELCOLOR attributes set in the main_attribute_list. 4) In the Lesstif version, if you move a layer, it's color is not changed on the layout. But if you save the file and reload (revert), the color will be changed. So for now, the gtk version goes ahead and changes the color when a layer is moved. Also, shouldn't DEF_LAYER be a setting instead of hardwired to 8? With it hardwired I can't let the user have the option of setting his layer groups preference for new layouts. Or I think better, why not derive the DEF_LAYER value from the default groups string?
