A 55 minute video on using layers - I do not think so, up to you, I find these bs.
This is where more information is required. Layers should move using the layers dock up / down arrows or by click-n-drag. The icons top of the dock (lock pixels / lock position / lock alpha) are just for the contents of the layer and do not affect moving the layer in the stack. example: https://i.imgur.com/eGhrrnH.mp4
It might be that the problem is layer groups. Move a layer in a layer group and using the up / down arrows and the layer is confined to the group. A click-n-drag will move layers in and out out of a layer group. example: https://i.imgur.com/7zCREWy.mp4
All sorts of ways you might do this. One way is make the appropriate layers visible, all the others with visibility off.
Then Layer -> New from visible will combine into a new layer. Use the paint tool in behind mode and carefully paint in. example: https://i.imgur.com/1eTu8sE.mp4
Cloning is a bit more difficult, all depends on your base layer.
Quote:I've tried adding another layer, raising and lowering layers. It is just locked somehow. I've tried pressing the little chekerboard in the layers tool panel for each of them.

Quote: I'd there is a gap of alpha between the colored border and the leaves. I'd like paint or clone over the gap of alpha.
