During editing I need often to move object (or group of objects) from the current layer to another layer.
The only way I know is to do Ctrl-C (copy) Ctrl-X (delete) and Ctrl-V (paste) in a new layer.
Unfortunately this is not the best way how to do it becuse you lose the placing of the object/objects.
Can someone help me to find-out a way how to do this task?
Thank yoU!
How to move object(s) from one layer to another?
Re: How to move object(s) from one layer to another?
select object > Shift-PgUp to move to next layer up or Shift-PgDn for next layer down
all I did was look in that layer menu

As PatJr said use the shortcuts for moving objects between layers.
I just wanted to add that there is also the option Paste in place that preserves the position, although it's more commonly used when dealing with groups.
