Why are objects on a bottom layer placed above top layers?

[sebastian2012a]

Hi,

I have these four layers:

 

Could someone please tell me why the green shape on the bottom layer hides/covers the layer above? Blend mode is set to Normal.

EDIT: User error. 😞 The Blend mode of one object above the green shape was in fact set to Darken. Sorry, don't know how I missed that.

Argh -- the Blend mode of one object above the green shape was in fact set to Darken instead of Normal.

Sorry about that. 😞

Thanks for reporting your discovery. Now I'll be able to sleep!

Ugh, sorry again... 🙂

I was kidding. Seriously, I appreciate your telling us that you were able to fix the problem, and how.

Thank you -- I was kidding, too. 🙂

Ah! I see it now: Sometimes I look through the wrong part of the trifocals and can't read the expression on the emoji!

Oh, I can see what my post would've felt like with a sad emoji. The power of images...
