I was working on a project that utilized all 29 layers and it always resets to the first layer if I move an image to another layer. It also moves a layer to the bottom if I add something new. Then, using the Move option to move any layer to a new place, the list resets immediately to the first one and so you cannot see where that layer is being moved to unless you scroll down and clicking the up arrow each time.
It would less frustrating and time consuming if the list stays in place.
