i don't think that level should be used to set a specific level. basically, you should not know that an item is at the level 884 nor care about it. only the "relative levels" should matter. as far as i know, this is how most (if not all) programs work. you should be able to reach your goal by moving items to the top / bottom and than move up and down a few levels. separate your items by layer if it does not work. two further remarks from my side: - it could be useful to add (to the align and distribute dialog?) a way to move an item above / below another item (first selected / last selected) - scripting could be useful, but... ciao a.l.e
