I have 15 layers that I would like to move into a new container layer so that I can manipulate the 15 layers as one. What are the steps to move the existing layers into a new container layer? Thank you in advance.

Create a new container layer by choosing LAYER > ADD LAYER > ADD CONTAINER LAYER...
Then choose the menu item LAYER > ATTACH LAYER > ATTACH ACTIVE LAYER TO A CONTAINER... for all 15 layers.

How do you move layers from one container to another?
I have one container with many layers, I need to put them into seperate containers.
The option described above is not available when an object is already in a container?

I think you can do that by first selecting LAYER > DETACH ACTIVE LAYER FROM CONTAINER.

Detaching the active layer first is doing the trick thank you.
Another similar question, I have two text layers and one is indented after the first text layer. The good thing is when I type something once it appears in both layers.
So, how do you do this on purpose? Create a new text layer and do something....?
Thanks,

I think you are looking for the menu item LAYER > ATTACH LAYER > ATTACH BORDER TO ACTIVE LAYER.
You can also press the corresponding button on the toolbar.
