Cannot change order of layers inside Repeat Grid

This problem started with the latest (December) updates to Adobe XD (now running on Windows Adobe XD version 3.1.12.2). Tested in both MacOS High Sierra and Windows 10, the layer order inside Repeat Grid -group cannot be changed by dragging layers with mouse. For other groups, symbols etc. it works as usual.

Edit: seems that layer unions have the same issue.

Have you tried the shortcuts to move forward and backward? On Mac, it’s Cmd, with bring all the way up and down the Z-order as ShiftCmd. On Windows, it’s Ctrl, and ShiftCtrl.

Finally an answer to this. This works and should be listed as the correct answer. Thanks mate.

I just ran into this issue myself. Annoying indeed.

The only solution - or workaround really - is to cut/paste the layer/s you wish to move to the top.

No I had not... but it works, even on a Swedish keyboard where Cmd+ö and Cmd+ä did the trick.

Still, it must be considered a bug that you can't drag-and-drop the layers within the repeat grid, yes?
