gEDA-user: Hiding individual layers of a layer-group

Hi folks, I've just started using separate layers so for my polygons so that I can hide them when necessary. This works fine until I group them with the appropriate layer. Ie - top and ground in a layer grouping - with ground being the layer I am putting polygons on. When I go to hide
