Hi Samjith,

this happens because the layer of the "option" group (group1) is lower than the layer of the other group (group2).

Objects are layered on top of each other by their layer. The highest layer will cover lower layers.

If you set the layer of group "group2" to e.g. 1 it will not cover your "option" group (group1)

You might also want to have a look at section 4.1.2 Alignment & Layering of the user guide.

Kind regards
