Problem with moving multiple layers within masked group

Hello,

 

I am trying to move multiple image layers within a masked group. When I move 1 of the layers it works as intended and I can move the images to the masked selection. However, when I select more than 1 of the images and try to move it the mask also gets moved. How can I accomplish what I am trying to do? I used to do this all the time and had no issues. 

Thanks

I have exactly the same problem. If I move one object inside a masked group all works file. If i try to move more than one object iside of a masked group it suddenly moves the mask with the objects. But then if i move, hide, or show any other layer the mask in the group suddenly jumps back to the right place.

Could you please post screenshots with the pertinent Panels (Toolbar, Layers, Options Bar, …) visible?

Can you post screenshot with Layers panel visible please? I am not sure I understand what is your problem in the first place.

 

I see no problem to move layers within group when mask is applied to the group. Also, I do not see any problem to move layers inside group with masks attached to layers and unlinked.

Please include the Toolbar and Options Bar in the screenshot, too. 

What are the Move Tool’s settings?
