[Qgis-user] Strange shapefile behaviour

[Werner Macho]

Hi Andrew,

Is it possible that you might have given control to the "Layer Order" Panel?

https://docs.qgis.org/3.34/en/docs/user_manual/introduction/general_tools.html#layer-order-panel

Your description sounds a bit like that.

regards
Werner
