In the Move tool check 'Move the active layer', 2. select the layer group in the Layers dialog, 3. move the layer group around with the Move tool. Thanks much. This is what I was trying to do. I simply did not review the tool options and try that one. My bad. Note you can use the SHIFT key to toggle between the modes. Very handy - I personally prefer the tool to be on pick an object to move by default, but I definitely have occasional cases where I need to move something that's already active but for one reason or another difficult to actually click on (like a text layer). -- Stratadrake strata_ran...@hotmail.com Numbers may not lie, but neither do they tell the whole truth. ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list

In the Move tool check 'Move the active layer', 2. select the layer group in the Layers dialog, 3. move the layer group around with the Move tool. It also works with the other Transform tools (you don't need to execute step 1 for the other Transform tools). This works for me with GIMP 2.8.4 on a Mac. If that doesn't work in your GIMP version, then for each of the layers in the group click into the second column of the Layers dialog to bring up a little chain before those layers. Then move them around and after your work click the chain icons again to remove them. B) To bring the whole layer group before or behind other layers. 1. In the Layers dialog select the layer group and 2. drag drop it there to the desired z-position or press the 'Raise' or 'Lower' button in the button bar at the bottom of the Layers dialog.
