HI, relative newbie here.
I'm in the middle of a mandala design, but suddenly I have a problem I can't seem to fix. I have a bunch of duplicated circles, that were grouped, but somehow they ended up locked or something, because I can't select the group. I only noticed when I went to group the whole part of the design, and the circles stayed at the bottom of the layer.
I've tried going to the preferences and unchecking 'ignore locked objects', but it didn't work. I'm not sure what to do...
edit: my 2nd comment is stil in moderation, but hopefully this way is faster?
Anyway, I did end up finding the 'unlock all', and it worked. Thanks though.

Actually, after a few hours I went back to Inkscape and messed around.... and found the 'unlock all objects' option. It worked, and I feel a bit stupid, but at least next time I'll know XD

Hi there!
It's hard to tell from that screenshot anything.
If you are in bad luck, those circles got merged to the raster image below.
Not a common issue, that bug was fixed as far as I know, so
maybe they were drawn inside a group of objects before?
Or they are on a locked layer?
Just some guesses.

Hello.
There is an option called "Unlock All" in the Object Menu. Haven't tried yet?
