[GRASS-user] Layer management window questions

   Two questions about working in the layer management window using 7.3.svn:

   1.) When re-arranging the z-order of map layers why must only a lower
level map be moved up and not also an upper level map moved down?

   2.) When a workspace is saved with a specific set of maps and one map in
the set is changed, how can I save this new set with a different name? I
tried to use the down-arrow icon to save the altered map set and the dialog
box asked if I wanted to overwrite the existing workspace. When I clicked
the 'no' button I was not offered the opportunity to enter a new workspace
name because the dialog box closed.

TIA,

Rich

   Answered: File -> Workspace -> Save as ...

I think this is wxPython limitation. You can try it in the "wxPython demo"
and report it as bug at wxPython/wxWidgets bug tracker.

Vaclav,

   OK, that makes sense.

Thanks,
