Its me, I know I’m doing something wrong (I think)…

I’ve got a base set of layers visbile for all rollovers.

I select a layer with a shape on it while one of the slices is selected. I move the object to its correct position.

I then click on another slice and the object’s ‘select box’ is back where I started it. I have not clicked on another layer to make it active (yet).

It almost seems like when I moved the object, this slice kept the object where it was (wrong location). I did’t press any kind of duplicate or create layer /create slice while doing this. It happens with text layers also where it appears I have ghosts of selections.

So, the ‘easy’ question is, should I be clicking on the ‘normal’ slice before moving/adjusting layer objects?

If I have created these ghosts, how can I find them/clean them up?

Thanks,

Brian
