Bug Description

Let say we have two layers A and B. Layer B is above A. There are two objects C and D. C belongs to A and D belongs to B. A and B are both unlocked. The active layer is layer A and object C is selected. Let say we then use the dedicated menu command to move the object C to the upper layer B. The layer B becomes the active one. In this context, making layer A the active layer and then clicking on the remove button, makes all others layers hidden except layer B and in layer B, object C becomes hidden too and only object D is still visible. Undo commands cannot restore anything.

Hi,

I can't reproduce this bug on Vista, Inkscape 0.46 and 0.47 (final).
Could you please confirm you still have this bug with the stable 0.47 version?
Thanks.

Sorry for being so much late.

I've just downloaded the last development version of Inskcape. I gonna try
it again to see if it works now.

Before I've done the update, I've tried again with Inkscape 0.46, and it
was indeed there (I could reproduce the bug).
See the attachment for an example SVG file which show the bug with 0.46
(may be useful for regression tests suite).
