Hello,
I think this is a bug which was brought to my notice by one of our software user.
When we group multiple layers ImageEnView tends to add a hanlde to the top right corner of ImageEnView. If we pull this handle if distorts all grouped layers.
For test case please open the shipped Layers demo (ImageEn\Demos\ImageEditing\Layers). Compile and run it.
Load an Image.
Load another two or more images on separate layers.
Set one layer into Mask Layer
Group any two layers including mask layer
And you will be abelt see a small handle on the top right corner of the control.
The easier way is to load an existing layer file like a .psd file and use this script to group selected layer with mask layer if it exist.
var
idx: Integer;
begin
if ImageEnView1.IsEmpty then
exit;
idx := ImageEnView1.LayersCurrent;
if ((idx + 1) <= (ImageEnView1.LayersCount - 1)) then
if ImageEnView1.Layers[idx + 1].IsMask then
ImageEnView1.Layers[idx + 1].Selected := True;
ImageEnView1.LayersGroup(True);
RefreshControls;
end;
TIA

Thanks Yogi,
I cannot reproduce it, but we have been doing a huge amount of work on layers over the last few months (for 7.0.0) and I expect it has been resolved.

Hi
We are expecting to release in the first quarter of 2017 (but it is a huge update, so we cannot be more specific than that).

Hello,
Finally I got myself to take a screen shot of the Layers Demo to show the problem in my OP.
Please check attached image I marked the problem witn a black color box (under file menu: 
Here I have selected two layers (Layer 1 and Layer 2) and grouped them. Here Layer 2 is a Mask. After doing this when the users selects Layer 1 or Layer 2 this resizing handle shows up....!
Regards,
Yogi Yang |

Yogi,
I can not duplicate this here with the Layers demo. Here is a screenshot. I'll try your demo next.

Your demo does not show any problems here. Try adjusting your images so that none of them are near the edge of the component and see if you get the same result.

Hello Bill,
Thank you for your inputs.
Please check my previous post...
Here I have selected two layers (Layer 1 and Layer 2) and grouped them. Here Layer 2 is a Mask.
If the currently selected layer (1 only) does not have a mask layer above it (Fro the mask layer to take effect it has to be hidden also), then you will not notice this problem.[/quote]
I have send a sample PDF file through WeTransfer to Nigel for testing purpose also.
TIA

It probably not worth exploring further when you consider layers have been reworked and will be available soon. I'd wait until version 7 and then do some more testing.
