--- Comment #2 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote@utsa.edu> ---
Actually, before this goes ANY further--please take the time to read the Draw
Guide (it has not been updated since the 4.3 release but is still applicable).

https://documentation.libreoffice.org/assets/Uploads/Documentation/en/DG4.3/DG43-DrawGuide.pdf

And specifically Chpt. 11 Advanced Draw Techniques which covers use of the
'Layers bar' and its three 'default' layers.

Suffice to say, Layers in LibreOffice function a lot different than other
Vector/Raster editing programs in common use--and that the Layer bar is not
Z-order sensitive nor are its layers 'groupable'.

There have been a lot of improvement requests about the Drawing UI, but the
underlaying framework and ODF dictate a lot about what is appropriate.

Point is there is no sense banging away at the Layer bar without understanding
how LibreOffice Draw handles layers. Please read the documentation.
