Hey guys, cc’ing in the mailing list :-)
FWIW, can any developer point to the location of code that handles z-order within Writer drawings?
I’m curious now myself!

This is most certainly a bug. But are you saying this occurs because of the number of times you
bring an object forward and backwards,
using "Bring to Front " and using "Send to Back" never gives problem ( i suppose using only 2
layers)
If it’s possible to locate an exact set of steps the users uses to get the problem, that would be
very helpful :-)
only when the user uses "Bring Forward" or "Send Backward" to match the problems occur
or are you saying the document has lots of layers and you then seem to see the issue?
we do not can see how many layers there are used
Do you have an example document?
i probably can find one or we trie to reproduce one. Can I send it to your mail adress ?
If it’s a confidential document, it’s best not to send to me. I’m not entirely certain how The
Document Foundation handles confidential documents. Perhaps Michael Meeks or one of the more
experienced devs might be able to help out.
If the document isn’t confidential, attach it to a bug report.
To log a bug, the location is https://bugs.documentfoundation.org
I would suggest creating an account for each member of your organization, and if you need updates
and you have a central email address add that the CC list in bugzilla. If you get stuck with
bugzilla, feel free to email me off list and I’m happy to assist.

Different objects (Images , Shapes...) can been moved (Arranged) back en forward in a Writer Doc.
Bring to Front

Our editors are some times confronted with a situation where Writer (after saving and reopening)
lost the saved position (layer) of some objects.
When using multiple times "Bring Forward" or "Bring Backward" Writer seems to lose control over the
layers, on screen it looks correct but after saving and reopening some objects are moved to a wrong layer.
As a workaround and to repair ,we advised only to use "Bring to Front" and "Send to Back" who
limits the number of used layers.
So:
Is there a limit on the used layers who can been saved?
If there is a limit, then a warning is needed to avoid the loss of layers.
Is it a bug who must been reported ? but who is very hard to reconstruct because we never could
lay the finger on the real problem, to many objects or to many layers ?
