Obj. in Layout
Problem: I make an object which is separated AND saved in lets say 3 layers. When loading it in Layout it is separated in the 3 parts (layers). And here is my QUEST: how can I move the the whole "thing" at once? It's impossible to move one layer a time - to get it in right place... ( og MUST I make the model into only one layer...????)

I would make a Null (say named Master) and then in scene options parent all the layers to the Null. Then use the Null to move everything in the scene.

Easyer way is when modeling double click the layer name then select the dropdown and parent that layer to another. So for instance in layer one I have a bottle in layer two the cap. I parent the cap to the bottle. Now in layout when I move the bottle the cap moves with it. You can also parent in the scene editor by draging and droping objects under eachother.
