Dragging Label from Landmass to Canvas causes it to disappear

Post by efremj » Thu Mar 17, 2016 12:07 am

Hi there,

So I found another reproducible bug tonight: When I drag a label from a landmass to whitespace on the canvas, the label disappears. You can still see the object in the Layers menu and you can select it from there to move it, but even after a save & restart, the object does not show up on the canvas. I've attached a screen shot below to illustrate my example. The label started on the landmass and I dragged it up and out of the body of the landmass and WHAM! Gone.

Hello,

The label is still a child of the landmass and, since it's no longer contained by the bounds of the landmass, it isn't being rendered. I've added it as an issue and we'll fix it for the next release. Unfortunately it'll still be broke in Beta 3, but you can select it with the layers window and cut/paste it to the canvas.
