You can, however, activate the Shift modifier and then move the layer group as a single unit. On the subject of groups versus individual grouped items, I really like the way Inkscape handles it: - Normal click selects single items relative to the current context (parent layer/group). If the clicked item is in a group, the group itself reacts. - Ctrl+click bypasses groups and selects individual items whether they are grouped or not. Though of course Inkscape's behavior isn't necessarily applicable to GIMP.... -- Stratadrake strata_ranger hotmail com -------------------- Numbers may not lie, but neither do they tell the whole truth. |
