Layers diappear

Hi all

I am adding some extra layers vie the " Layers & Effects " button, save the file and then when I re-open those new layers are gone.
There is nothing on the laters yet, surely this should not cause them to disappear?

Cheers

    I assume that you are speaking of Sheets here, and not layers.

    But yes, sheets are only saved with the drawing if they have content. Empty sheets will disappear. To prevent this, place something on them, for example a single point. A point is so small, that it is for most purposes invisible. If you place it in the Origin (0,0), it will never be noticed..

    Monsen is spot on. To add to this, all sheets in Profantasy templates have a green (color 1) point at 0,0, on the layer TEMPLATE (hidden and frozen by default). This is to prevent empty sheets from disappearing. You can add a point on that layer and your new sheet, if it's otherwise empty.

    Making empty sheets stick around is on our "to do" list for future updates.
