Created attachment 191745 [details]
sample ODG

Steps:
1. Open attachment
2. Double-click on circle "2" to enter group
3. Long-click and drag-and-drop circle "2" onto the Controls layer to move it to that layer

Result: object disappears (but can be seen when drag-and-dropped)

I'm not able to make it disappear.
I can drag out of the page, but the circle remains.
And visible in the navigator.

Sorry @Stéphane, how do you drag on the controls layer?

See https://help.libreoffice.org/7.6/en-US/text/sdraw/guide/layer_move.html
You need to click and hold (without moving) until the icon changes. Then you can drag to the layer tab. It's not the easiest feature to discover!
Comment 4 m_a_riosv 2024-01-04 21:21:31 UTC 
Ok, I can reproduce it now. As you mention, can be selected with the mouse or with the navigator.
