    I see, thanks for the quick reply. Haven’t been messing with sublayers either, so I assume it’s around for a while now?

    Good to know, thx for clearification.
    Yeah regarding the gif, it doesn’t seem to be minor.. :/

    The attached video shows how the bug is reproduced.
    It is not urgent, since it does not have much disadvantages, but it may produce problems w/ further development/updates.

    It was tested on 2 windows devices (Surface running Win 11, latest Illustrator CC version; Windows PC , latest Illustrator CC version) with new and existing files. I was able to reproduce it every time.

    Thanks for ur time.

    Compound-Layer isn’t green, I just marked it using snipping tool. It’s Blue, like the Parent-Layer.

    Sure, had been reproduceable for me on any file so far, that’s why I didn’t provide further info.

    I’ll get back to you in a few hrs.

    When moving an artwork onto another layer the indicator-color changes as expected. If the new layer however is nested in another layer, and the artwork is moved from the nested layer onto the parent layer, the indicator color remains the nested layers color.
    This can be fixed, by closing and opening the childview of the parent layer.
    Also this does not apply, if the artwork is moved directly onto the layer and not between existing artworks on that layer.

    01 - Artwork is moved onto a new layer
    02 - New layer is nested in an parent layer
    03 - artwork is moved from the nested layer onto its parent, but between existing artworks
    04- New layer is deleted, but indicator-color remains
